Description

High-thickness aluminum foil anode foil composite pulse waveform pore-forming technology TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the technical field of anode foil pulse pore-forming technology, in particular to high-thickness aluminum foil anode foil composite pulse waveform pore-forming technology. BACKGROUND

[0002] In the modern electronic industry, high-purity aluminum foil anode foil as an important component of electrolytic capacitors, the optimization of its manufacturing process is crucial to improve the performance of the capacitor. At present, many front-end enterprises mostly produce using a single pulse waveform for pore-forming. Compared with traditional direct current pore-forming anode foil, this pore-forming method has obvious improvement in capacity. However, during the pulse waveform pore-forming process, there is a large instantaneous current at the top, and some pore-forming waveforms cause current enrichment on both sides of the electrode, resulting in a decrease in residual core uniformity and an increase in residual core penetration, thereby affecting the capacity and mechanical strength. Moreover, high-thickness aluminum foil anode foil is particularly affected.

[0003] Patent technology document CN104505260A discloses a method for preparing middle-high voltage etching foil by superimposed pulse direct current. The invention generates holes by the method of superimposed pulse direct current through primary pore-forming, which has a simple process flow, improves the specific capacitance and mechanical properties of the etching foil, and solves the limitation that the pore-forming process in the traditional etching process cannot be powered off. However, the distribution uniformity of the holes on the surface of the aluminum foil obtained by the invention is still lacking, resulting in inconsistent specific surface area and affecting the performance of the aluminum foil.

[0004] Composite pulse (pulse waveform superimposed pulse waveform) pore-forming technology reduces the instantaneous current at the top due to the superposition of pulse waveforms, which causes the current to flow continuously without instantaneous current generation. At the same time, by reasonably designing the parameters of the pulse current, the composite pulse can fully utilize the electromigration effect to optimize the current distribution and enrichment, prevent excessive corrosion caused by local current enrichment, and make the distribution of holes more uniform and the specific surface area higher. However, the frequency of the pulse also affects the shape and distribution of the pore-forming of the anode foil. SUMMARY

[0005] In view of the above, the purpose of the present application is to provide high-thickness aluminum foil anode foil composite pulse waveform pore-forming technology, which is a pulse pore-forming technology for high-thickness aluminum foil anode foil, so that the high-thickness aluminum foil anode foil after pulse treatment has excellent specific capacity and mechanical properties.

[0081] Table 1 Performance test results

[0082]

[0083] Data analysis: from Table 1, Examples 1-3, it can be seen that the high-thickness aluminum foil anode foil composite pulse waveform pore-forming technology of the application ultimately obtains an etched foil sample with excellent electrostatic capacity and mechanical properties.

[0084] From Table 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 1, it can be seen that by alternating low-frequency pulses and high-frequency pulses 3-5 times during the pulse pore-forming process and then performing a low-frequency pulse at the end, the electrostatic capacity and mechanical strength of the sample are further improved, which is likely to be because the last low-frequency pulse further expands the pores, improves the connectivity and depth of the pores, thereby further improving the specific capacity, and further optimizes the structure of the pores, so that the mechanical properties are also improved.

[0085] From Table 1, Example 2 and Comparative Examples 2 and 3, it can be seen that by alternating low-frequency pulse superposition at the initial stage of pore-forming and high-frequency pulse superposition at the middle and later stages of tunnel pore growth during the pulse pore-forming process, the electrostatic capacity and mechanical strength of the sample are further improved, which is mainly because the use of low-frequency pulses at the initial stage of pore-forming can form larger initial pores with uniform distribution; the use of high-frequency pulses at the middle and later stages of tunnel pore growth can refine the pores and improve the density and uniformity of the pores. Compared with other pulse treatment methods, this low-high pulse treatment method can significantly improve the specific capacity and mechanical properties of the product.

[0086] From Table 1, Example 2 and Comparative Example 4, it can be seen that compared with the conventional pore-forming process, the high-thickness etched foil ultimately obtained by the application has a significant improvement in both electrostatic capacity and mechanical properties.
