Problem

Existing cell pouches for secondary batteries face challenges in achieving excellent electrolyte resistance and formability, which are crucial for reliable battery performance.

Innovation Solution

A cell pouch design comprising an inner resin layer with an aluminum adhesive layer, a core layer, and a sealing layer, along with a barrier layer and an outer resin layer, where the PER content in these layers is optimized to achieve high electrolyte peel strength and deep forming capabilities.

Engineering Contradictions & Design Principles

VSEngineering Contradiction Analysis

1Reliability

If the PER content in the aluminum adhesive layer is increased to improve electrolyte resistance, then the electrolyte peel strength increases, but the formability of the cell pouch deteriorates

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrolyte resistanceVSAvoidformability
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSEase of manufacture

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies local quality by optimizing the PER content distribution across different layers of the inner resin layer. Specifically, the aluminum adhesive layer contains 0-20% PER, the core layer contains 0-30% PER, and the sealing layer contains 0-30% PER. This localized optimization allows each layer to contribute differently to electrolyte resistance while maintaining overall formability, resolving the contradiction between improving electrolyte resistance and preserving formability.

Inventive Principle:
Principle #3Local quality

2Reliability

If the PER content in the core layer and sealing layer is increased to improve electrolyte resistance, then the electrolyte peel strength increases, but the limit forming depth decreases

Engineering Contradiction:
Improveelectrolyte peel strengthVSAvoidlimit forming depth
Core Design Contradiction:
ReliabilityVSManufacturing precision

Solution Approach 1:

The patent applies parameter changes by precisely controlling the PER content ranges in each layer: aluminum adhesive layer (0-20%), core layer (0-30%), and sealing layer (0-30%), with the constraint that X+Y+Z≤30%. This parameter optimization ensures that the total PER content provides sufficient electrolyte resistance while individual layer compositions maintain the flexibility needed for deep forming operations, achieving both high electrolyte peel strength and adequate limit forming depth.
