本申请的发明人在研究过程中惊奇发现,通过在隔离膜多孔基材表面设置包含纳米纤维素的涂层,并合理控制多孔基材的表面张力和涂层的表面张力之比在合适的范围内,能够使隔离膜兼顾耐热性优良且粘度强度高的特点,从而使得使用该隔离膜的二次电池可兼顾高能量密度、高热安全性能和长使用寿命。
隔离膜
具体地,本申请实施方式第一方面提供了一种隔离膜,包括多孔基材和设置在所述多孔基材的至少一个表面上的涂层,其中,所述涂层包括纳米纤维素,所述多孔基材的表面张力为δ1mN/m,所述涂层的表面张力为δ2mN/m,并且所述隔离膜满足δ1/δ2≥0.68
目前商业化二次电池采用的隔离膜通常为聚烯烃膜,例如聚乙烯膜、聚丙烯膜或聚丙烯/聚乙烯/聚丙烯三层复合膜,其熔点在130℃至160℃之间,由此隔离膜的耐热性较差,受热时会严重收缩,增加了正极和负极短路风险。在多孔基材(例如可以为聚烯烃膜、无纺布等)上涂布一层耐热性的无机陶瓷层,可以改善隔离膜的耐热性,但是由于市售无机陶瓷颗粒的粒径较大,由此其在多孔基材上的堆积层数较少(通常为≤5层),进而导致其对隔离膜耐热性的改善效果有限,并且还会增加隔离膜整体厚度,导致无法平衡二次电池的能量密度,特别是在动力电池领域,不利于续航里程提升。此外,无机陶瓷层与多孔基材之间的粘结强度也较差,二次电池长期充放电过程中,无机陶瓷层浸泡电解液后脱落的风险较高。
纳米纤维素是指任一维尺寸在纳米级(例如100nm以内)的纤维素的总称,其既具有纤维素的特性,又具有纳米颗粒的特性,其可以是通过化学、物理、生物等中的一种或多种手段从自然界中的木材、棉花、秸秆等提取出的高分子纳米材料,具有来源广泛、成本低、生物可降解、模量高、比表面积高等优势,因此其是传统石化资源的优良替代品,可以有效地缓解环境污染和石化资源紧张等问题。纳米纤维素还具有良好的耐高温特性,且受热后体积变化较小,由此能够提高隔离膜的耐热性,降低隔离膜受热时的收缩程度,降低正极和负极短路风险,使二次电池具有高热安全性能。与传统无机陶瓷颗粒相比,纳米纤维素的密度较小,由此还能够降低二次电池的重量。
因此,当本申请的涂层包括纳米纤维素时,有助于提高隔离膜的耐热性,同时与传统无机陶瓷层相比,本申请的涂层还具有较小的厚度和重量,由此还有助于提高二次电池的体积能量密度和重量能量密度。此外,由于本申请的涂层具有高耐热性,由此可以选用更薄的多孔基材,由此还能够进一步降低二次电池的重量,提高二次电池的体积能量密度和重量能量密度。
本申请的发明人在研究过程中发现,包含纳米纤维素的涂层浆料涂布在多孔基材表面时容易出现漏涂问题,由此降低了制备的隔离膜的机械强度、增加了正极和负极短路风险。
本申请的发明人在研究过程中惊奇发现,通过使多孔基材的表面张力δ1mN/m和涂层(本申请中均指干燥后的涂层)的表面张力δ2mN/m满足δ1/δ2≥0.68时,多孔基材和涂层之间能具有高粘结强度,由此避免了二次电池长期充放电过程中涂层脱落问题;同时还可以避免涂层浆料涂布时出现漏涂问题,由此涂层还具有均一性高和多孔基材覆盖率高的特点,进而可以使隔离膜具有优良的耐热性。当多孔基材的表面张力较低而涂层的表面张力较高导致δ1/δ2小于0.68时,涂层浆料涂布时容易出现漏涂问题,此时隔离膜的耐热性差且粘结强度差,二次电池长期充放电过程中,涂层脱落的风险较高。
因此,本申请提供的隔离膜具有耐热性优良且粘度强度高的特点,从而使得使用该隔离膜的二次电池可兼顾高能量密度、高热安全性能和长使用寿命。
本申请的发明人在研究过程中还惊奇发现,多孔基材的表面张力与涂层的表面张力的比值也不宜太高,此时隔离膜的透气性和离子传输特性可能变差,由此会影响二次电池的电化学性能和动力学性能,例如会影响二次电池的循环性能。在一些实施例中,可选地,0.68≤δ1/δ2≤1.8,0.7≤δ1/δ2≤1.5,0.7≤δ1/δ2≤1.2,0.7≤δ1/δ2≤1.0或0.7≤δ1/δ2≤0.9。由此,隔离膜可以更好地兼顾耐热性优良、粘度强度高且离子传输特性好的特点,从而使得使用该隔离膜的二次电池可更好地兼顾高能量密度、高热安全性能和长使用寿命。
在一些实施例中,多孔基材的表面张力δ1mN/m可满足δ1≥23,可选地,23≤δ1≤45。多孔基材的表面张力在合适的范围内时,涂层浆料涂布时不易漏涂,多孔基材覆盖面积更大,从而隔离膜能具有更优异的耐热性,二次电池能具有更好的安全性能;同时还有利于多孔基材与涂层之间的粘结强度保持在较高范围内,极大地降低涂层脱落的风险。
在一些实施例中,涂层的表面张力δ2mN/m可满足25≤δ2≤50,可选地,30≤δ2≤45。涂层的表面张力在合适的范围内时,有利于多孔基材与涂层之间的粘结强度保持在较高范围内,极大地降低涂层脱落的风险;同时还有利于电解液浸润隔离膜,提升隔离膜的离子传输特性,提升二次电池的容量发挥特性。
二次电池在长期充放电过程中,由于正极活性材料和负极活性材料微观结构变化的不可逆,导致整个电池的体积会有所增大,特别地,当二次电池快速充电时,负极活性材料嵌入离子后的体积增大程度更高。电池膨胀后会对隔离膜产生挤压和/或拉伸作用,容易导致隔离膜破损,由此会增加正极和负极短路风险。因此,隔离膜还需要具有良好的耐外力挤压能力。在一些实施例中,所述涂层还包括填料。填料的存在有助于涂层具 有稳定的空间网络结构,由此能够提升隔离膜的离子传输特性和耐热性;此外,还能够提升隔离膜的拉伸强度、耐穿刺能力和耐外力挤压能力。
在一些实施例中,所述填料可包括选自无机颗粒和有机颗粒中的至少一种。
在一些实施例中,所述填料的分解温度可在200℃以上,由此填料可具有热稳定性好且不易分解的特性,进而可以进一步提升隔离膜的耐热性。
无机颗粒具有热稳定性高且不易分解的特性,且其表面通常具有羟基,由此容易与纳米纤维素搭建形成稳定的空间网络结构。在一些实施例中,可选地,所述无机颗粒包括具有5以上介电常数的无机颗粒、具有离子传导性但不储存离子的无机颗粒和能够发生电化学反应的无机颗粒中的至少一种。
可选地,所述具有5以上介电常数的无机颗粒包括勃姆石、氧化铝、氧化锌、氧化硅、氧化钛、氧化锆、氧化钡、氧化钙、氧化镁、氧化镍、氧化锡、氧化铈、氧化钇、氧化铪、氢氧化铝、氢氧化镁、碳化硅、碳化硼、氮化铝、氮化硅、氮化硼、氟化镁、氟化钙、氟化钡、硫酸钡、硅酸镁铝、硅酸镁锂、硅酸镁钠、膨润土、水辉石、钛酸锆、钛酸钡、Pb(Zr,Ti)O 3(简写为PZT)、Pb 1-mLa mZr 1-nTi nO 3(简写为PLZT,0<m<1,0<n<1)、Pb(Mg 3Nb 2/3)O 3-PbTiO 3(简写为PMN-PT)、及其各自的改性无机颗粒中的至少一种。可选地,各无机颗粒的改性方式可为化学改性和/或物理改性。所述化学改性方式包括偶联剂改性(例如采用硅烷偶联剂、钛酸酯偶联剂等)、表面活性剂改性、聚合物接枝改性等。所述物理改性方式可为机械力分散、超声分散、高能处理等。通过改性处理能够减少无机颗粒的团聚,由此能使其与纳米纤维素搭建形成更稳定和均一的空间网络结构;此外,通过选择具有特定官能团的偶联剂、表面活性材料或聚合物改性无机颗粒,还有助于提升涂层对电解液的浸润特性,提升涂层与多孔基材之间的粘结强度。
可选地,所述具有离子传导性但不储存离子的无机颗粒包括Li 3PO 4、磷酸钛锂Li x1Ti y1(PO 4) 3、磷酸钛铝锂Li x2Al y2Ti z1(PO 4) 3、(LiAlTiP) x3O y3型玻璃、钛酸镧锂Li x4La y4TiO 3、硫代磷酸锗锂Li x5Ge y5P z2S w、氮化锂Li x6N y6、SiS 2型玻璃Li x7Si y7S z3和P 2S 5型玻璃Li x8P y8S z4中的至少一种,0<x1<2,0<y1<3,0<x2<2,0<y2<1,0<z1<3,0<x3<4,0<y3<13,0<x4<2,0<y4<3,0<x5<4,0<y5<1,0<z2<1,0<w<5,0<x6<4,0<y6<2,0<x7<3,0<y7<2,0<z3<4,0<x8<3,0<y8<3,0<z4<7。由此能够进一步提升隔离膜的离子传输特性。

有机颗粒具有热稳定性好且不易分解的特性,由此可以提升隔离膜的耐热性;同时,当二次电池因为过充滥用、热滥用等使其内部温度达到有机颗粒的熔点时,有机颗粒还可以融化,并因毛细作用而被吸入多孔基材的微孔中起到闭孔和断路的作用,从而有利于保证二次电池具有高安全性能。
在一些实施例中,所述有机颗粒包括但不限于聚乙烯颗粒、聚丙烯颗粒、聚苯乙烯颗粒、纤维素、纤维素改性剂(例如羧基甲基纤维素)、三聚氰胺树脂颗粒、酚醛树脂颗粒、聚酯颗粒(例如聚对苯二甲酸乙二酯、聚萘二甲酸乙二酯、聚对苯二甲酸丁二酯)、有机硅树酯颗粒、聚酰亚胺颗粒、聚酰胺酰亚胺颗粒、聚芳酰胺颗粒、聚苯硫醚 颗粒、聚砜颗粒、聚醚砜颗粒、聚醚醚酮颗粒、聚芳醚酮颗粒、丙烯酸丁酯与甲基丙烯酸乙酯的共聚物(例如丙烯酸丁酯与甲基丙烯酸乙酯的交联聚合物)中的至少一种。
在一些实施例中,可选地,所述有机颗粒的玻璃化转变温度可以在130℃以上。由此当二次电池内部温度达到130℃时,有机颗粒不会由玻璃态转变为粘流态,由此能够确保隔离膜不剧烈收缩。更可选地,所述有机颗粒包括但不限于三聚氰胺甲醛树脂颗粒、酚醛树脂颗粒、聚酯颗粒、有机硅树酯颗粒、聚酰亚胺颗粒、聚酰胺酰亚胺颗粒、聚芳酰胺颗粒、聚苯硫醚颗粒、聚砜颗粒、聚醚砜颗粒、聚醚醚酮颗粒和聚芳醚酮颗粒中的至少一种。
在一些实施例中,所述涂层中的所述填料的含量可为≥60wt%,可选为65wt%至90wt%,基于所述涂层的总重量计。由此能够保证涂层浆料具有合适的粘度,更有利于涂布;此外,还有利于填料与纳米纤维素搭建形成稳定的空间网络结构,从而进一步提升隔离膜的耐热性、拉伸强度、耐穿刺能力和耐外力挤压能力。
在一些实施例中,所述填料包括一次颗粒、二次颗粒或其组合,可选地,所述填料至少包括二次颗粒。

由表3可见,实施例1-22通过在隔离膜的多孔基材的两个表面设置包含纳米纤维素的涂层,并合理控制多孔基材的表面张力δ1mN/m和涂层的表面张力δ2mN/m使其满足δ1/δ2≥0.68,可选地满足0.68≤δ1/δ2≤1.8,更可选地满足0.7≤δ1/δ2≤1.2时,能够使隔离膜兼顾低热收缩率、高粘度强度和高透气度,还能使二次电池兼顾高热安全性能和良好的循环性能。
对比例1的涂层中采用的氧化铝为一次颗粒形貌且颗粒粒径较大,此时氧化铝与纳米纤维素无法形成一体化的搭接效果,进而导致隔离膜耐热性和二次电池热安全性能较差。此外,对比例1在制备涂层浆料时还需要使用较高含量的粘结剂,而粘结剂用量较大时易出现堵孔问题,由此还导致二次电池的循环性能较差。
对比例2的涂层中未采用氧化铝,此时纳米纤维素溶液粘度较大,导致涂层的透气性差,二次电池的循环性能较差;同时隔离膜耐热性和二次电池热安全性能也较差。
对比例3和对比例4中采用的多孔基材的表面张力与制备的涂层的表面张力的比值小于0.68,此时,涂层浆料涂布时存在大面积漏涂问题,由此导致隔离膜的粘结强度差、 耐热性差,并且二次电池的热安全性能也较差。
