[0002] Technical Field

[0003] The present invention relates to the technical field of adhesive tapes, specifically, to a ceramizable adhesive, an adhesive film, an adhesive tape, a preparation method and an application.

[0004] Background Art

[0005] With the rapid development of electrical equipment, the electronics industry, new energy vehicles, chemical energy storage batteries and other fields, higher requirements are put forward on the safety of batteries thereof. At present, fireproof materials are commonly used for thermal runaway protection of battery components and other structures at home and abroad. When electronic and electrical batteries using these fireproof materials undergo thermal runaway due to various abuses, these fireproof materials can block heat conduction when encountering a high temperature or an open flame, avoiding the occurrence of larger- scale heat spread. In the fields of electrical appliances, electronic equipment, batteries, etc., adhesive tapes are often used to bond devices. Due to the different shapes and structures of devices, the performance requirements for adhesive tapes are also different. The structure and performance of adhesive tapes need to meet multiple requirements. Batteries may experience high temperatures and high heat. When a battery is in a high temperature and high heat state, the flame retardant effect of the adhesive tape in the battery is poor. The adhesive tape is prone to burning under high temperature and high heat conditions, resulting in failure of the bonding performance, which in turn leads to a decrease in the safety performance of the battery.

[0038] Detailed Description of the Embodiments

[0039] The technical solutions in the embodiments of the present invention will be clearly and completely described below with reference to the drawings in the embodiments of the present invention. Obviously, the described embodiments are some, but not all, of the embodiments of the present invention. All other embodiments obtained by those of ordinary skill in the art on the basis of the embodiments of the present invention without inventive effort are within the scope of protection of the present invention.

[0040] The terms "first", "second", etc. in the description and claims of the present invention are used to distinguish similar objects, and are not used to describe a specific order or sequence. It should be understood that the terms used in this way are interchangeable under appropriate circumstances, so that the embodiments of the present invention can be implemented in an order other than those illustrated or described herein. In addition, the term "and / or" in the description and claims means at least one of the connected objects, and the character generally indicates that objects associated with each other are in an "or" relationship.

[0041] With reference to FIGS. 1 to 4, a ceramizable adhesive, an adhesive film, an adhesive tape, a preparation method, and an application provided by the embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail below through specific embodiments and their application scenarios.

[0042] The ceramizable adhesive according to the embodiments of the present invention includes: 70-100 parts by mass of an acrylate polymer; 30-180 parts by mass of a ceramized powder; and 30-100 parts by mass of a flame retardant. In the ceramizable adhesive, the adhesive has good adhesion and can be used as the adhesive layer of the adhesive tape. The acrylate polymer is easily coated on the reinforcement layer of the adhesive tape, facilitating photocuring. The ceramized powder has a skeleton supporting function. When encountering high temperatures and high heat, the flux absorbs heat in order to be in a molten state, softens and deforms, and is connected with the high temperature resistant filler to form a whole, providing sufficient supporting strength and stability. The flame retardant can improve the flame retardant effect of the material, so that the adhesive tape with the adhesive is not easy to burn under high temperature and high heat conditions, and the structure of the adhesive tape remains stable. The adhesive tape with the adhesive can be used for batteries to protect the batteries from thermal runaway.

[0043] In some embodiments, the acrylate polymer may include an acrylate pre-polymer.

[0044] A method for preparing the acrylate pre-polymer may include: placing an acrylate monomer and a photo-initiator separately in a four-port detachable flask with a stirrer, a temperature sensor, a nitrogen inlet pipe and a cooling pipe, stirring them, and adjusting a rotational speed to 200-300 rpm until they are evenly mixed; then bubbling with nitrogen for 10-30 minutes to remove dissolved oxygen in the slurry; then applying LIV light from the outside of the flask for polymerization; when the temperature rises by about 6-9°C to reach a moderate viscosity, turning off the light, stopping blowing nitrogen, and introducing oxygen into the flask for 20-30 minutes; and finally preparing the acrylate pre-polymer.

[0045] The acrylate pre-polymer may be prepared by adjusting the preparation parameters as needed, and the acrylate pre-polymer may also be prepared by other preparation methods.

[0046] The acrylate polymer is formed by polymerization of a monofunctional acrylate monomer. The type of the monofunctional acrylate monomer is not specifically limited, as long as the viscosity of the acrylate polymer obtained after polymerization at 25°C is 200-1500 cPs. For example, the monofunctional acrylate monomer may be at least one selected from: methyl(meth)acrylate, ethyl(meth)acrylate, propyl(meth)acrylate, isopropyl(meth)acrylate, n- butyl(meth)acrylate, isobutyl(meth)acrylate, sec-butyl(meth)acrylate, tert-butyl(meth)acrylate, amyl(meth)acrylate, isoamyl(meth)acrylate, hexyl(meth)acrylate, heptyl(meth)acrylate, octyl(meth)acrylate, 2-ethylhexyl(meth)acrylate, isooctyl(meth)acrylate, nonyl(meth)acrylate, isononyl(meth)acrylate, decyl(meth)acrylate, isodecyl(meth)acrylate, undecyl(meth)acrylate, dodecyl(meth)acrylate, tridecyl(meth)acrylate, tetradecyl(meth)acrylate, pentadecyl(meth)acrylate, hexadecyl(meth)acrylate, heptadecyl(meth)acrylate, octadecyl(meth)acrylate, nonadecyl(meth)acrylate, eicosyl(meth)acrylate, octadecyl iso(meth)acrylate, isobornyl(meth)acrylate, 2-hydroxyethyl(meth)acrylate, 2- hydroxypropyl(meth)acrylate, 3-hydroxypropyl(meth)acrylate, 4-hydroxybutyl(meth)acrylate and 6-hydroxyhexyl(meth)acrylate.

[0047] In some embodiments, the ceramizable adhesive may include a cross-linking agent. The cross-linking agent may include at least one of a polyacrylate monomer, a bifunctional acrylate monomer, a tertiary functional acrylate monomer and dimethyl propane tetraacrylate, and the cross-linking agent may facilitate cross-linking of acrylate compounds.

[0048] Optionally, the cross-linking agent may be a multifunctional acrylate monomer.

[0049] Optionally, the cross-linking agent may be 0.15-0.3 parts by mass. In some embodiments, the ceramizable adhesive may include: a tackifying resin. The tackifying resin may be used to increase the adhesion of the adhesive.

[0050] Optionally, the tackifying resin may be 10-60 parts by mass. For example, the tackifying resin may be 10 parts by mass, 30 parts by mass or 60 parts by mass, which may be specifically selected according to actual situations.

[0051] Optionally, the tackifying resin may include at least one of terpene phenol, petroleum resin, rosin resin and polyterpene. For example, the tackifying resin may include terpene phenol and petroleum resin, and the tackifying resin may be rosin resin, which may be specifically selected according to actual situations.

[0052] Optionally, the ceramized powder may include: a flux and a high temperature resistant filler.

[0053] Optionally, the flux may include: at least one of zinc borate, lithium oxide, zinc oxide, phosphate glass powder, borate glass powder and silicate glass powder, the specific types and contents of which may be specifically selected according to actual situations.

[0054] Optionally, the particle size of the flux may be 5-40 urn. The particle size of the flux may be less than or equal to 38 urn. For example, the particle size of the flux may be 5 urn. The melting point may be 310-380°C. For example, the melting point may be 330°C.

[0055] The softening point of the flux is 240-700°C. For example, the softening point of the flux may be 400-600°C. When encountering high temperatures and high heat, the flux softens and deforms, and then is in a molten state. The molten flux can connect the high temperature resistant filler, so that the adhesive tape can maintain the integrity of the structure under high temperature and high heat conditions and have fire prevention and heat insulation effects.

[0056] The high temperature resistant filler has a skeleton supporting function, and the molten flux can be connected with the high temperature resistant filler to form a whole, providing sufficient supporting strength and stability. The flame retardant can improve the flame retardant effect of the material, so that the adhesive tape with the adhesive is not easy to burn under high temperature and high heat conditions, and the structure of the adhesive tape remains stable. The adhesive tape with the adhesive can be used for batteries to protect the batteries from thermal runaway.

[0057] The high temperature resistant filler may include at least one of kaolin, mica powder, talc, clay, montmorillonite, bentonite, wollastonite, surface modified wollastonite, magnesium oxide, aluminum oxide, zirconium oxide, silicon dioxide, titanium dioxide, silicon carbide, mullite, feldspar and attapulgite. For example, the high temperature resistant filler may be a mixture of kaolin, mica powder and wollastonite, the specific types and contents of which may be selected according to actual situations. Optionally, the particle size of the high temperature resistant filler may be 5-45 urn. If the particle size of the high temperature resistant filler is too small, the supporting effect is not good. If the particle size of the high temperature resistant filler is too large, it is not easily coated on the reinforcement layer, and it is easy for the particles to protrude from the surface coating. Therefore, the particle size of the high temperature resistant filler may be 5-45 urn.

[0058] Optionally, the melting point of the high temperature resistant filler may be greater than 1000°C. The melting point of the high temperature resistant filler may be greater than the melting point of the flux. For example, the melting point of the high temperature resistant filler may be greater than 1000°C, and the melting point of the flux may be 400-700°C. The high temperature resistant filler having a higher melting point can have better supporting strength under high temperature and high heat conditions, and is not easily damaged and deformed. The melting point of the flux is lower than the melting point of the high temperature resistant filler so that the flux can connect the high temperature resistant filler after absorbing heat and melting. As a result, the high temperature resistant filler and the flux are connected into an integral structure, so that the adhesive tape maintains structural stability under high temperature and high heat conditions.

[0059] Optionally, the particle size of the high temperature resistant filler may be larger than the particle size of the flux, so that the flux may be dispersed or filled between the particles of the high temperature resistant filler. The flux can connect the high temperature resistant filler after absorbing heat and melting, so that the high temperature resistant filler and the flux are connected into an integral structure, so that the adhesive tape maintains structural stability under high temperature and high heat conditions.

[0060] In some embodiments, the flame retardant may include: at least one of aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, type II ammonium polyphosphate, melamine polyphosphate, melamine cyanurate, alkyl aluminum hypophosphite, tricresyl phosphate, butyl triphenyl phosphate, tri(2- ethylhexyl)phosphate, 2-ethylhexyl diphenyl phosphate, isopropylated triphenyl phosphate and aryl phosphate oligomers.

[0061] The flame retardant may be an inorganic hydroxide or a phosphorus-containing substance, which can improve the flame retardation of the material. The flame retardant can inhibit the additional heat release caused by the combustion of the acrylate solidified material itself, thereby further improving the heat insulation performance of the fire protection and heatinsulating material and delaying the temperature rise rate of the protected substrate. The flame retardant may include: at least one of aluminum hydroxide, magnesium hydroxide, antimony trioxide, tricresyl phosphate and isopropylated triphenyl phosphate. For example, the flame retardant may be aluminum hydroxide. The flame retardant may include aluminum hydroxide and tricresyl phosphate. The specific type and content of the flame retardant may be selected according to actual situations. The D90 of a powder flame retardant may be 80-120 urn. For example, the D90 of the powder flame retardant may be 100 urn.

[0062] Optionally, the particle size of the powder flame retardant in the flame retardant may be 1 -20 urn. For example, the particle size of the powder flame retardant in the flame retardant may be 1 urn, 10 urn or 20 urn, and the particle size of the flame retardant may be smaller than the particle size of the high temperature resistant filler. The specific particle size may be selected according to actual situations.

[0063] In some embodiments, the ceramizable adhesive may further include: a photo-initiator. The photo-initiator can initiate the reaction between pre-polymer and the cross-linking agent. The photo-initiator may be 1 .35-1 .8 parts by mass.

[0064] In some embodiments, the present invention prepares a ceramizable adhesive film, including: the ceramizable adhesive described in the above embodiments.

[0065] The adhesive film may be matched with any substrate as required. The adhesive film has high peeling force and a good flame retardant effect. In the event of a fire, it may be ceramicized to ensure its own structural integrity while ensuring that the bonded object maintains a certain bonding strength without peeling off. It may be used for bonding and fixing members in high temperature environments.

[0066] In some embodiments, the peel force of the ceramizable adhesive film may be greater than or equal to 4 N / cm.

[0067] For example, the peel force of the ceramizable adhesive film on a stainless steel plate may be greater than or equal to 4 N / cm, making the ceramizable adhesive film have a certain adhesion force, so that the ceramizable adhesive film may be used as both a room temperature adhesive layer and a high temperature resistant adhesive layer.

[0068] Optionally, the thickness of the ceramizable adhesive film may be 45 urn to 1000 urn. For example, the thickness of the ceramizable adhesive film may be 45 urn, 200 urn, 500 urn or 1000 urn, and the ceramizable adhesive film may be selected to have different thicknesses according to different usage scenarios.

[0070] The ceramizable adhesive tape with fire protection prepared from the adhesive may be sintered to form a hard porous ceramized shell in the event of a fire, and has excellent fire protection and heat insulation performance.

[0092] Each adhesive tape obtained in the examples and the comparative examples was cut into a circular sample with a diameter of 50 mm, and the sample was attached to a stainless steel plate substrate with a size of 100 mmx100 mmx0.8 mm coated with an electrophoretic insulating coating, thereby forming a sample with the adhesive tape and the stainless steel substrate. After the sample was burned by a butane gas flame above 1200°C for 10 minutes, the high-temperature bonding and flame propagation isolation performance of the ceramizable adhesive tape was simulated in the case of thermal runaway of a new energy vehicle battery. Then, the state of the sample on a bonded substrate and whether there is an open flame on the side away from the flame gun were visually tested. A state where the sample and the substrate were not peeled off from each other was marked with the symbol the state where the sample was peeled off from no more than half of the substrate was marked with a symbol "A", and a state where the sample and the substrate were peeled off from more than half of each other was marked with the symbol "X" for evaluation.

[0093] 4. Test of heat insulation performance A combustion test device is shown in FIG. 3. A 0.8 mm-thick steel plate A with a KTL coating was used to simulate a battery pack of a car. An adhesive tape sample B (size: 200x200 mm) is laminated on a steel plate A and burned by a butane gas fire above 1200°C for 10 minutes to simulate the heat insulation performance of the material under thermal runaway conditions. During this process, the temperature of the steel plate on the other side away from the flame, i.e., a "cold side", is tested. The temperature of the cold side (the temperature of the side of the adhesive tape away from the flame is the "cold side") and the temperature of a hot side were monitored by a k-type thermocouple or a b-type thermocouple, respectively. The lower the temperature on the cold side, the better the heat insulation performance.

[0094] Synthesis Example 1 (Preparation of Acrylate Pre-polymer)

[0095] 100 parts by mass of isooctyl acrylate, 14 parts by mass of hydroxypropyl acrylate, and 0.05 parts by mass of a photo-initiator (trade name: OMNIRAD 184, produced by IGM RESINS) were separately placed in a four-port detachable flask with a stirrer, a temperature sensor, a nitrogen inlet pipe and a cooling pipe, and stirred, and a rotational speed was adjusted to 200- 300 rpm until the mixture was uniformly mixed. After that, nitrogen was bubbled for 30 minutes to remove dissolved oxygen in the slurry. Then, 365 nm LED LIV light (5 mW / cm2) was applied from the outside of the flask to polymerize. Thus, a partially polymerized pre-polymerized slurry, i.e., an acrylate pre-polymer, was prepared.
