AI Technical Summary

Technical Problem

In the current lithium battery copper foil storage process, using only silica gel or calcium oxide desiccant can easily lead to oxidation of the copper foil end face. Furthermore, silica gel is not sensitive enough to moisture, while calcium oxide is prone to moisture absorption.

Method used

The system employs a combination of a desiccant layer and an inorganic compound absorbent layer. The desiccant layer is made of silica gel, alumina gel, or molecular sieve, the fabric barrier layer is made of cotton or non-woven fabric, and the inorganic compound absorbent layer is made of calcium oxide, calcium sulfate, or quicklime. By controlling the proportions and isolating the layers, the drying effect is enhanced by utilizing the properties of each material.

Benefits of technology

It improves the dryness of the storage environment for lithium-ion battery copper foil, prevents copper foil oxidation, enhances the absorption capacity of moisture, and avoids the defects of a single material.

Description

Technical Field

[0001] This utility model relates to the technical field of desiccants used for copper foil storage, specifically a desiccant for lithium battery copper foil storage. Background Technology

[0002] Lithium-ion battery copper foil requires a very dry environment during transportation and storage; otherwise, oxidation can easily occur on the end faces. Currently, silica gel is commonly used as a desiccant for copper foil storage. While silica gel is less prone to moisture absorption, it is far less sensitive to moisture than calcium oxide. Calcium oxide has high water absorption and is more sensitive to moisture, but it is easily heated and absorbs moisture; if used alone, it may also cause oxidation of the copper foil end faces.

[0003] Therefore, in order to correct the above-mentioned defects, we propose a desiccant for storing lithium-ion battery copper foil. Utility Model Content

[0004] The technical problem solved by this utility model is to provide a desiccant for storing copper foil for lithium batteries.

[0005] To achieve the above objectives, this utility model provides the following technical solution: a desiccant for storing lithium battery copper foil, comprising a desiccant layer, a cloth barrier layer at the bottom of the desiccant layer, and an inorganic compound water-absorbing layer at the bottom of the cloth barrier layer.

[0006] Furthermore, the weight ratio between the desiccant layer and the inorganic compound absorbent layer is 1:1.

[0007] Furthermore, the desiccant layer is one of silica gel, alumina gel, or molecular sieve.

[0008] Furthermore, the desiccant layer is silica gel.

[0009] Furthermore, the fabric barrier layer is either cotton or non-woven fabric.

[0010] Furthermore, the inorganic compound absorbent layer is one of calcium oxide, calcium sulfate, and quicklime.

[0011] Furthermore, the inorganic compound absorbent layer is calcium oxide.

[0012] Compared with the prior art, the beneficial effects of this utility model are: this utility model combines a single desiccant with an inorganic compound water-absorbing material, which can improve the drying effect. Attached Figure Description

[0015] 1. Desiccant layer; 2. Fabric barrier layer; 3. Inorganic compound absorbent layer. Detailed Implementation

[0016] The technical solutions of the present utility model will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the accompanying drawings of the embodiments. Obviously, the described embodiments are only some embodiments of the present utility model, and not all embodiments. Based on the embodiments of the present utility model, all other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art without creative effort are within the protection scope of the present utility model.

[0017] This utility model provides a technical solution:

[0018] Please see Figure 1 A desiccant for storing lithium battery copper foil includes a desiccant layer 1, a cloth barrier layer 2 at the bottom of the desiccant layer 1, and an inorganic compound water-absorbing layer 3 at the bottom of the cloth barrier layer 2. The desiccant layer 1 is one of silica gel, alumina gel, and molecular sieve; the cloth barrier layer 2 is one of cotton cloth and non-woven fabric; and the inorganic compound water-absorbing layer 3 is one of calcium oxide, calcium sulfate, and quicklime.

[0019] The desiccant layer 1 is preferably made of silica gel, the cloth barrier layer 2 is preferably made of cotton cloth, and the inorganic compound water-absorbing layer 3 is preferably made of calcium oxide. The desiccant packaging tape is separated into upper and lower layers by a cotton cloth layer. Calcium oxide is placed in the lower layer and silica gel is placed in the upper layer. The ratio of calcium oxide to silica gel is 1:1 by weight. This utilizes the sensitivity of calcium oxide to moisture and allows silica gel to absorb any moisture that may be generated by the calcium oxide. The reason for separating calcium oxide and silica gel with a cotton cloth layer is that silica gel absorbs water due to its porosity. If the two are mixed, it will affect the drying effect of silica gel.

[0020] When using it, make sure that calcium oxide is in the bottom layer and silica gel is in the top layer.

[0021] Although embodiments of the present invention have been shown and described, it will be understood by those skilled in the art that various changes, modifications, substitutions and alterations can be made to these embodiments without departing from the principles and spirit of the present invention, the scope of which is defined by the appended claims and their equivalents.
