Embodiment 1

[0049] The current collector structure provided by this embodiment is as figure 1 As shown, the polymer layer is PET, the metal layer is aluminum, the thickness of the polymer PET layer is 6 μm, the thickness of the metal layer in the non-tab connection area is 1 μm, and the thickness of the metal layer in the tab connection area is 1.05 μm. The positive tab is welded on the tab connection area of ​​the metal aluminum layer by ultrasonic welding, the thickness of the positive tab is 0.1mm, and the width is 6mm;

[0050] Use the LK-108A model tensile tester of Likong Instrument Technology Co., Ltd. to clamp the tab with a clamp, and then use the tensile tester to test the pulling force N that the tab is pulled off from the current collector. The width of the tab is D, which can be The tab welding strength F=N / D is calculated, and the result shows that the tab welding strength in this embodiment is 0.6 N / mm.

Embodiment 2

[0052] The current collector structure provided by this embodiment is as figure 1 As shown, the polymer layer is PET, the metal layer is aluminum, the thickness of the polymer PET layer is 6 μm, the thickness of the metal layer in the non-tab connection area is 1 μm, and the thickness of the metal layer in the tab connection area is 1.5 μm. The positive tab is welded on the tab connection area of ​​the metal aluminum layer by ultrasonic welding, the thickness of the positive tab is 0.1mm, and the width is 6mm;

[0053] Using the same welding strength test method as in Example 1, the results show that the tab welding strength in this example is 1.1 N / mm.

Embodiment 3

[0055] The current collector structure provided by this embodiment is as figure 1 As shown, the polymer layer is PET, the metal layer is aluminum, the thickness of the polymer PET layer is 6 μm, the thickness of the metal layer in the non-tab connection area is 1 μm, and the thickness of the metal layer in the tab connection area is 2 μm.

Abstract

The invention provides a current collector and application thereof. The first aspect of the invention provides a current collector. The current collector comprises M metal layers and N polymer layers,the metal layers and the polymer layers are stacked, L metal layers comprise tab connecting areas and non-tab connecting areas, the thickness of the tab connecting areas is greater than that of the non-tab connecting areas, and M is greater than or equal to 1, N is greater than or equal to 1, L is greater than or equal to 1, and M is greater than or equal to L. According to the current collectorprovided by the invention, the tab connecting areas for connecting the tab on the metal layer is thickened, so that the welding strength of the tab is effectively improved, the binding force of the tab and the current collector is improved, the contact impedance of the tab connecting region is reduced, and the connecting yield of the tab and the metal layer is improved.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a current collector and its application, and relates to the technical field of lithium ion batteries. Background technique [0002] Due to its high energy density and high power density, lithium-ion batteries are currently a very versatile secondary battery. Conventional lithium-ion battery current collectors use metal foil, the positive electrode usually uses metal aluminum foil, and the negative electrode usually uses metal copper foil. Once the lithium-ion battery prepared directly using the metal foil has an internal short circuit, the current cannot be cut off inside the battery, resulting in Heat buildup eventually triggers thermal runaway. In order to solve this problem, some researchers have used a new type of polymer / metal composite current collector to replace the conventional metal current collector. This type of current collector usually uses a non-conductive polymer film as the substrate, and the upper and lower s...
