Description
[Technical field]
[0001] This application claims the benefit of the filing date of Korean Patent Application No. 10-2021-0030319 filed with the Korean Intellectual Property Office on March 8, 2021, and all contents disclosed in the documents of that Korean patent application are incorporated herein by reference.
[0002] The present invention relates to a method for producing a corrosion prevention layer and a cylindrical secondary battery, and more particularly to a method for producing a corrosion prevention layer capable of preventing corrosion of a battery can and a cylindrical secondary battery. [Background technology]
[0003] Conventional cylindrical secondary batteries have a structure in which a tab connecting a jelly roll electrode assembly to an external terminal is welded to the foil of the jelly roll electrode assembly, and have problems in that the current path is limited and the resistance of the jelly roll electrode assembly itself is high.
[0004] To improve this, attempts have been made to reduce the resistance by increasing the number of taps, but there is a limit to ensuring sufficient current paths and reducing the resistance to a desired level. To overcome this limit, attempts have been made to reduce the resistance in the welding process applied to the battery can.
[0005] However, the exterior of the battery can of a cylindrical secondary battery is usually made of a metal plating layer, and the electrode welding process is laser welding, and since welding of the bottom may proceed from the exterior of the battery can made of a metal plating layer, there is a possibility that the metal plating layer constituting the exterior of the battery can may be damaged.
[0006] If the metal plating layer is damaged in this manner, the surface becomes exposed to air, which may cause corrosion of the battery can.
[0007] To solve this problem, a method of applying an anti-rust solution to the metal plating layer and then washing it has been applied, but even with this method, the components of the anti-rust solution can be easily removed, which makes the battery can easily corrode.
[0008] Therefore, there is a need for other materials or methods for comprehensively solving the above problems and effectively preventing corrosion of battery cans. Summary of the Invention [Problem to be solved by the invention]
[0009] In order to solve the above problems, one object of the present invention is to provide a method for manufacturing a corrosion prevention layer and a cylindrical secondary battery.

[0015] The method for manufacturing a corrosion prevention layer and the cylindrical secondary battery according to one aspect of the present invention can prevent corrosion of the battery can due to damaged areas of the metal plating layer caused by welding on the battery can, thereby preventing product defects.

[0037] DETAILED DESCRIPTION OF THE PREFERRED EMBODIMENTS Hereinafter, preferred embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail with reference to the accompanying drawings.
[0038] According to one embodiment of the present invention, there is provided a method for manufacturing a corrosion prevention layer of a cylindrical secondary battery, the method comprising: a jelly-roll type electrode assembly having a structure in which a first electrode, a second electrode, and a separator interposed therebetween are wound in one direction around a winding shaft; a battery can containing the electrode assembly and including a metal plating layer; and a connection lead plate connecting the battery can and the electrode assembly, (A) applying a resin for a corrosion prevention layer to a portion of the metal plating layer that is damaged at a welded portion formed by melting the connection lead plate and the battery can when the bottom surface of the outside of the battery can is welded; and (B) curing the resin for the corrosion prevention layer with ultraviolet light to form a corrosion prevention layer.

In this case, the method may further include forming a corrosion prevention layer by avoiding the cleavable valve.
[0050] In another embodiment, the resin for the corrosion prevention layer includes at least one selected from the group consisting of epoxy-based, acrylate-based, silicone-based, and urethane acrylic-based resins.

[0052] In the method for manufacturing the corrosion prevention layer according to the embodiment, the resin for the corrosion prevention layer includes at least one selected from among epoxy-based, acrylate-based, silicone-based, and urethane acrylic-based resins having UV curing and low viscosity properties. This simplifies the process for forming the corrosion prevention layer, makes it possible to form the corrosion prevention layer with a uniform thickness, prevents air bubbles from being generated in the corrosion prevention layer, and provides excellent physical properties in terms of heat resistance, heat conductivity, etc.
