An insulating tape for lithium battery cells includes: a multi-layer composite insulating tape 1, with an indicator label 2 at its outermost end. The multi-layer composite insulating tape 1 includes, from bottom to top, a release layer 11, a functional adhesive layer 12, a composite substrate layer 13, and a protective coating 14. The indicator label 2 is adhered to the bottom surface of the release layer 11. The release layer 11 is a biaxially oriented polypropylene film coated with silicone. The functional adhesive layer 12 is composed of a high-temperature resistant pressure-sensitive adhesive and a phase change thermally conductive adhesive. The composite substrate layer 13 is composed of a polyimide film and a polyurethane sponge layer. The protective coating 14 is a nano-titanium dioxide-fluorocarbon resin composite coating. The silicone coating... Its surface has low surface energy, allowing for easy peeling without damaging the adhesive layer, facilitating the application of the insulating tape during battery cell assembly. The polyimide film possesses excellent electrical insulation, high-temperature resistance, and chemical stability, effectively isolating the battery cell from external electric field interference. The polyurethane sponge layer, with its porous structure, provides excellent flexibility and cushioning, allowing it to tightly adhere to the battery cell surface, filling gaps, eliminating bubbles and wrinkles, and providing cushioning protection against external impacts. Nano-titanium dioxide exhibits good UV resistance and self-cleaning ability, resisting the aging effects of UV radiation on the insulating tape and maintaining its stable appearance and performance. Fluorocarbon resin imparts excellent chemical corrosion resistance to the coating, giving the insulating tape strong resistance to organic solvents, acidic and alkaline solutions. The combined protective coating 14 effectively improves the environmental adaptability and service life of the insulating tape.

[0021] The release layer 11 has a thickness of 30-50μm and a release force of 10-30gf / 25mm.

[0022] The high-temperature pressure-sensitive adhesive uses organosilicon acrylate copolymer as the main resin and adds nano alumina filler, with a thickness of 20-40μm. The phase change thermally conductive adhesive uses paraffin-based phase change material as the matrix and is doped with graphene nanosheets, with a thickness of 15-30μm.

[0023] The polyimide film has a thickness of 15-30 μm, and the polyurethane foam layer has a thickness of 20-40 μm.

[0024] The protective coating 14 has a thickness of 5-10 μm.

[0025] The inner side of the multi-layer composite insulation tape 1 is provided with a retaining ring 3, an inner ring 4 and a support ring 5. The multi-layer composite insulation tape 1 is bonded to the periphery of the retaining ring 3 and the support ring 5. The inner ring 4 is rotatably connected to the inner side of the retaining ring 3 and the support ring 5. The cooperation between the inner ring 4 and the support ring 5 facilitates the rotation of the multi-layer composite insulation tape 1, thereby facilitating the rotation and feeding of the multi-layer composite insulation tape 1.

[0026] The upper end of the support ring 5 has an annular groove 51, and the inner ring 4 is fixedly connected to the side of the ring 4. The limit ring 41 is rotatably connected inside the annular groove 51.

[0027] The upper end of the support ring 5 is provided with a socket 52, and multiple sets of sockets 52 are provided. The bottom of the retaining ring 3 is fixedly connected with a rod 31, and multiple sets of rods 31 are provided. The rod 31 is slidably connected inside the socket 52. The periphery of the rod 31 is coated with anti-slip paint. By inserting the rod 31 into the socket 52, the inner ring 4 can be limited between the retaining ring 3 and the support ring 5.

[0028] In summary, the insulating tape for lithium battery cells provided by this utility model combines high-temperature resistant pressure-sensitive adhesive with phase change thermally conductive adhesive during operation. This achieves a strong bond between the tape and the battery cell, while also absorbing heat through the phase change material and efficiently conducting heat through graphene, thus solving the thermal management problem of the battery cell. At the same time, nano-alumina enhances the insulation performance, breaking through the limitations of the single function of traditional tapes. The substrate, which is a composite of polyimide film and polyurethane sponge layer, combines the high insulation and high temperature resistance of polyimide with the flexible, conforming, and buffering properties of polyurethane sponge. It can closely conform to the complex shape of the battery cell, providing all-round protection and avoiding the problem of local protection failure. Nano-titanium dioxide-fluorocarbon resin significantly improves the stability and durability of the insulating tape in complex environments by addressing both UV aging resistance and chemical corrosion resistance, thus extending the overall service life of the lithium battery.

[0029] Insert the limiting ring 41 into the ring groove 51, and then insert the insertion rod 31 into the insertion hole 52. At this time, the limiting ring 41 can be limited inside the ring groove 51 by the retaining ring 3. At this time, the inner ring 4 can rotate between the retaining ring 3 and the support ring 5 through the limiting ring 41. The rotation between the inner ring 4 and the support ring 5 can facilitate the rotation and feeding of the multi-layer composite insulation tape 1.
