Problems solved by technology

Such a process has the following defects: 1) The contact area between the metal current collector and the electrode active material particles is limited, and the interface resistance is large, which causes an increase in the internal resistance of the battery. Microcracks are generated between the material and the current collector, causing the separation of the electrode active material and the current collector, which leads to the deterioration of the performance of the battery; 2) The metal current collector itself has a high density, so that the mass fraction of the electrode active material in the overall pole piece 3) Under bending conditions, the electrode active material is easily separated from the metal current collector
In view of the above problems, some problems can be solved by modifying the surface of the current collector, but it is difficult to fundamentally change

Embodiment 1

[0039] Add 200mg of graphene into 400mL ethanol and disperse uniformly by ultrasonic for 0.5h (the content of graphene in the dispersion is 0.5mg / mL) and filter it onto the continuously rolling polyvinylidene fluoride membrane to form long strips of graphene. After rolling, it was separated from the polyvinylidene fluoride film, and dried in vacuum at 70° C. for 12 hours to obtain the graphene current collector. The scanning electron microscope picture of the obtained graphene current collector is shown in Figure 4 (a-b), it can be seen that the graphene sheets are tightly stacked, and the lateral size of the graphene-based current collector is 15-25 microns. Carry out stress-strain performance test to it, described graphene-based current collector can bear the pulling force of 1.8MPa at most, and cellulose paper can bear the pulling force of 0.75MPa at most, as Figure 5 , showing its high mechanical strength properties.

Abstract

The invention discloses a preparation method and applications of a battery graphene-base current collector, and belongs to the field of electrochemical battery. The provided current collector is suitable for lithium ion battery and lithium-sulfur battery, is prepared by dispersing graphite, subjecting graphite to suction filtration, and rolling the graphite, has a thickness of 15 to 25 [mu]m, and has high mechanical strength. When the provided graphene-base current collector is applied to a lithium ion battery or a lithium-sulfur battery, the weight of the lithium ion battery or the lithium-sulfur battery is effectively reduced, the energy density of the lithium ion battery or the lithium-sulfur battery is improved. Moreover, the provided current collector has a very strong electrolyte absorbing and storing performance, so the strong current charging / discharging performance of battery using the provided current collector is improved, and the properties of multiple electrode materials are all largely improved. The preparation process of the provided current collector is simple and controllable, and furthermore the preparation method can be applied to massive and low-cost industrial production, and thus has a high application value.
