[0014] The meanings of various numbers in the figure are:
[0015] 1, film group; 10, base film; 11, ceramic slurry layer; 12, solid electrolyte layer. DETAILED DESCRIPTION
[0016] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present application will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present application. Obviously, the described embodiments are only a part of the embodiments of the present application, rather than all the embodiments. Based on the embodiments in the present application, all other embodiments obtained by those skilled in the art without creative labor fall within the scope of protection of the present application.
[0017] Please refer to Figure 1 The embodiment provides a new lithium ion battery separator, which comprises a film group 1, and the film group 1 comprises a base film 10, the front and back surfaces of the base film 10 are respectively fixedly connected with ceramic slurry layers 11, and the outer surfaces of the ceramic slurry layers 11 are respectively fixedly connected with solid electrolyte layers 12.
[0018] The working principle is as follows: first, the base film 10 in the film group 1 serves as a core support structure, and the front and back surfaces thereof are respectively fixedly connected with ceramic slurry layers 11, the main role of the ceramic slurry layers 11 is to improve the puncture strength of the separator and enhance the mechanical properties of the separator, so as to prevent the separator from being punctured due to external force or internal pressure during the use of the battery, thereby avoiding direct contact between the positive and negative electrodes to cause short circuit and other safety problems, and the outer surfaces of the ceramic slurry layers 11 are fixedly connected with solid electrolyte layers 12, the solid electrolyte layers 12 provide a channel for the migration of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes, and due to the solid characteristics, the solid electrolyte layers 12 have higher safety and stability compared with the traditional liquid electrolyte, can effectively prevent electrolyte leakage and other problems, and are helpful to realize the design of the all-solid-state battery and improve the overall performance and safety of the battery.
[0019] In order to enhance stability, therefore, in the embodiment, the base film 10 is made of polyethylene material, which has good chemical stability and mechanical strength. The polyethylene material has good chemical stability and can remain stable in the working environment of the lithium ion battery without chemical reaction with the positive and negative electrode materials, electrolyte, etc. This ensures that the diaphragm will not be damaged by chemical reaction in the battery, thereby ensuring the performance and life of the battery.
[0020] In order to be able to pierce the strength, therefore, in the embodiment, the ceramic slurry layer 11 is made of ceramic powder, and the base film 10 is coated with 1um thick ceramic powder on both sides. The ceramic powder layer improves the puncture strength of the base film 10. The ceramic powder has very high hardness and rigidity, and can effectively block the invasion of the puncture object when the diaphragm is punctured by external force. The presence of the ceramic powder increases the thickness and strength of the diaphragm, so that the puncture object needs to overcome greater resistance to penetrate the diaphragm.
[0021] In order to improve the service life, therefore, in the embodiment, the solid-state electrolyte layer 12 is made of 1% mass concentration of PVDF adhesive layer. The PVDF adhesive layer generates adhesive force after heating, and the use of PVDF does not introduce new impurity materials to effectively prevent the improvement of battery consistency and cycle life.
[0022] The new diaphragm for lithium ion battery in the embodiment is used in specific use. First, the base film 10 in the film group 1 is used as the core support structure. The polyethylene material has good chemical stability and can remain stable in the working environment of the lithium ion battery without chemical reaction with the positive and negative electrode materials, electrolyte, etc. This ensures that the diaphragm will not be damaged by chemical reaction in the battery, thereby ensuring the performance and life of the battery. The ceramic slurry layer 11 is fixedly connected to the front and back surfaces of the base film 10. The main function of the ceramic slurry layer 11 is to improve the puncture strength of the diaphragm and enhance the mechanical properties of the diaphragm. It prevents the diaphragm from being punctured by external force or internal pressure during the use of the battery, thereby avoiding the direct contact of the positive and negative electrodes to cause short circuit and other safety problems. The solid-state electrolyte layer 12 is fixedly connected to the outer surface of the ceramic slurry layer 11. The ceramic powder layer has very high hardness and rigidity. When the diaphragm is punctured by external force, the ceramic powder layer can effectively block the invasion of the puncture object. The presence of the ceramic powder layer increases the thickness and strength of the diaphragm, so that the puncture object needs to overcome greater resistance to penetrate the diaphragm. The solid-state electrolyte layer 12 provides a channel for the migration of lithium ions between the positive and negative electrodes. Due to its solid-state characteristics, compared with the traditional liquid electrolyte, the PVDF adhesive layer generates adhesive force after heating, and the use of PVDF does not introduce new impurity materials to effectively prevent the improvement of battery consistency and cycle life, which has higher safety and stability, can effectively prevent electrolyte leakage and other problems, and is helpful to realize the design of all-solid-state battery, and improve the overall performance and safety of the battery.
