Description

A method for preparing a dry electrode and the obtained dry electrode and its use

[0001] This application claims priority to the Chinese patent application filed with the China Patent Office on July 19, 2023, with application number 202310886118.8. The entire contents of the above application are incorporated by reference into this application. Technical Field

[0002] The present application belongs to the field of batteries, and for example relates to a method for preparing a dry electrode and the obtained dry electrode and its use. Background Art

[0003] Thanks to economic globalization and the increasing demands of countries around the world for carbon neutrality and environmental protection, the replacement of traditional energy with new energy has become a strong development trend. Lithium-ion batteries have gradually become indispensable in fields such as power and energy storage, and have become the main force in the new energy field.

[0004] With the rapid development of lithium-ion battery technology and the substantial increase in its market share, the development of lithium-ion power batteries is increasingly moving towards low cost, high energy density, and fast charging technology. In battery manufacturing, greater attention is paid to resource costs, energy consumption, and the recovery of volatile solvents. To improve product energy density performance, greater attention is paid to thick electrode manufacturing and initial efficiency. To enhance product fast charging and power, greater attention is paid to the battery's rate characteristics.

[0005] In the manufacturing process of lithium-ion battery cells, the key performance of the cell is mainly determined by the manufacturing process of the electrode. In the relevant technologies, the manufacturing of electrode sheets is mainly divided into two types: wet and dry processes, with the wet process being the mainstream. The wet process generally first prepares a conductive slurry with a binder, solvent, and conductive agent, then gradually adds the active material and stirs it, and finally adds a solvent to adjust the slurry viscosity. However, the traditional wet process has poor dispersion of the conductive agent. At the same solid content, the slurry viscosity is higher than that of the dry process, and the internal resistance of the battery electrode produced is also larger.

[0006] Dry electrode technology is a new preparation process different from the wet method. It basically does not use or uses a small amount of harmless solvents, which can improve compaction and manufacture thick electrodes. The dry battery can increase the energy density by more than 20%, and has better kinetic characteristics. In thick electrodes, the cycle performance and impedance are better, which can greatly reduce battery manufacturing costs, energy consumption and improve battery performance.

[0007] In the related art, a more feasible dry manufacturing process uses a fibrillable PTFE binder, for example, by mixing and stirring PTFE, SP, and graphite to obtain a premix; fiberizing the premix, fiberizing the premix to obtain a fiberized mixture; baking the mixture, baking the fiberized mixture to obtain a marshmallow-like mixture; forming the mixture into a film, repeatedly folding the marshmallow-like mixture and rolling it multiple times to obtain a thicker film; thinning the film, thinning the thicker film to obtain a negative electrode film of a suitable thickness; this negative electrode dry film preparation process and negative electrode dry film have the advantages of simple process, less material waste, and low labor and material costs, which can improve production efficiency and production benefits.

[0008] Another example is the preparation of a dry-process electrode membrane by uniformly mixing active materials, conductive agents, and PTFE polymer membranes to obtain a mixture, then subjecting the mixture to a fiberization treatment, and then subjecting the mixture to a heat-calendering treatment. This method significantly reduces the difficulty of dry-process electrode sheet preparation by using polymer membranes, reduces the requirements for fiberization equipment, and achieves more complete fiberization and better dispersion uniformity between components.

[0009] However, PTFE binders have intolerance issues in the negative electrode. During charging, the C-F bond can react with lithium, thereby consuming some lithium ions, reducing the initial efficiency of the battery, and causing capacity loss. Research in related technologies has mainly focused on PTFE modification or the use of other binders to improve this problem. However, PTFE modification mainly involves adding fluorinated monomers and copolymerizing with tetrafluoroethylene, and there is still a side reaction between the C-F bond and lithium. Other commonly used binders are PP and PE polymers with low melting points. The active materials are melt-bonded at near melting points, which is a relatively complex process. The produced pole pieces are thick and have poor flexibility.

[0010] Since the dry process of PTFE fibrillation in the production of negative electrode sheets is easier to achieve mass production and large-scale industrialization, therefore, in dry electrode technology, research on electrode formulations and corresponding new processes, to achieve modification of PTFE in the electrode or improvement of the surrounding environment, reduce side reactions and improve the actual effect, while also improving the shedding of active particles during the charge and discharge process under the pure PTFE process, etc., is of great significance for improving the electrical performance of dry battery. Technical issues

[0011] The present application provides a method for preparing a dry electrode and the obtained dry electrode and its use. The method uses a new binder formula, which includes a main binder and a glue containing a dispersible binder and an aqueous binder. The main binder is first dry-mixed with the raw material to form a first dry material, and then the glue is added for dispersion. The obtained second dry material is crushed to obtain a fiberized powder of the main binder. The powder can be calendered to prepare a dry electrode. The present application uses a dispersible binder and an aqueous binder to match the main binder to coat the fiberized main binder. On the one hand, it effectively protects the main binder and solves its intolerance problem in the electrode reaction. On the other hand, it effectively improves the bonding effect, avoids the powdering and falling off of the obtained film layer and electrode sheet, and effectively improves the first effect and cycle performance.

[0145] Comparative Example 3

[0146] This comparative example provides a method for preparing a dry negative electrode, which does not use a dispersible binder.

[0147] The dry-process negative electrode sheets obtained in the examples and comparative examples were assembled into a battery CR-2025 (negative electrode half-cell), and the battery's initial charge and discharge conditions, cycle performance, etc. were tested on a Xinwei battery test cabinet;

[0148] FIG1 is a comparison of the tensile strength of the dry-process negative electrode sheets obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3.

[0149] FIG2 is a charge-discharge test curve of the dry-process negative electrode sheets obtained in Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3 after being assembled into batteries.

[0150] The results of other embodiments and comparative examples are listed in Table 1.

[0151] Table 1

[0152] As can be seen from Table 1:

[0153] From the comparison of Example 1 and Comparative Examples 1-3, it can be seen that the first effect and gram capacity of the battery when only a single aqueous binder or dispersed binder is added are not as good as the effect when the aqueous binder and the dispersed binder are used together; from the comparison of Example 1 and Examples 4-7, it can be seen that the ratio between the aqueous binder and the dispersed binder will affect the gram capacity and the first effect of the battery; from the comparison of Hydrophobic 1 and Examples 8-11, it can be seen that the addition amount of the main binder PTFE has an impact on the gram capacity and the first effect of the battery, and the increase in its usage occupies too much of the usage of the active material, and at this time, the same proportion of aqueous binder and dispersed binder is used. The improvement effect of the adhesive on the incremental main adhesive is weakened; from the comparison of Example 1 and Examples 12-15, it can be seen that if the particle size of the second dry material obtained by adding the glue to disperse is too large, it will affect the dispersion effect, and thus slightly affect the performance of the diaphragm, and from the comparison of Example 1 and Examples 16-19, it can be seen that the particle size of the finally obtained binder fiberized powder is crucial. When the particle size is large, the performance of the diaphragm will be reduced; from the comparison of Example 1 and Example 20, it can be seen that when the water-based binder and the dispersible binder both use the small molecule polymer PEG, it has an impact on the gram capacity and the first effect of the battery, and its effect is not as good as that of Example 1.
