The application discloses a thin film aluminum-plated composite
current collector and a preparation method thereof, and relates to the technical field of current collectors. The application firstly performs low-temperature
plasma treatment on a base film to introduce hydroxyl groups, then immerses the base film into a modified liquid containing an acylhydrazone bond intermediate A, and forms a modified base film containing a dynamic
covalent bond through heating and
epoxy ring opening crosslinking; subsequently, a micron-
level aluminum layer is deposited on both sides of the base film through magnetron
sputtering and
vacuum evaporation; finally, the aluminum layer is subjected to gradient heat treatment assisted by a
magnetic field to optimize the
grain orientation and refine the grains of the aluminum layer; the dynamic
covalent bond layer forms a coordination bond with aluminum atoms through a
nitrogen-containing functional group to improve the
interface bonding strength, and the dynamic
covalent bond and the crosslinking network endow the base film with excellent stability and
electrolyte blocking ability; the gradient heat treatment assisted by the
magnetic field optimizes the electrical
conductivity and mechanical properties of the aluminum layer in cooperation, and also releases the
internal stress of the film, effectively avoiding product
curling or
cracking. The thin film aluminum-plated composite
current collector prepared by the application has the effects of good electrical
conductivity, high
interface bonding and excellent electrochemical stability.
