Key points of lithium ion battery production process control – Semco university

Introduction:

Lithium Ion Battery Production Process in sets of electrodes and then assembled in cells. Active material is mixed with polymer binders, conductive additive, and solvents to form a slurry that is then coated on a current collector foil and dried to remove the solvent and create a porous electrode coating.

There is no single lithium-ion battery. With the variety of materials and electrochemical couples available, it is possible to design battery cells specific to their applications in terms of voltage, state of charge use, lifetime needs, and safety. Selection of specific electrochemical couples also facilitates the design of power and energy ratios and available energy.

Working Principle

The working principle of a lithium-ion battery refers to its charging and discharging principle. When the battery is charged, lithium ions are generated on the positive electrode of the battery, and the generated lithium ions move to the negative electrode through the electrolyte. The carbon as the negative electrode has a layered structure.

The Structure of Lithium Battery:

The structure of an individual lithium battery is simple and made up of three basic components; a cathode, an anode, and an electrolyte. A separator is also used, which prevents the cathode and anode from touching. Lithium polymer batteries are widely used due to their efficiency and high capacity.

  • Cathode – The active material is generally lithium manganate or lithium cobalt oxide, nickel cobalt lithium manganate material, and electric bicycles generally use nickel cobalt lithium manganate (commonly known as ternary) or ternary + a small amount of manganese acid Lithium, pure lithium manganate and lithium iron phosphate are gradually fading out due to their bulkiness, poor performance or high cost. Electrolytic aluminum foil with a thickness of 10–20 microns is used for the conductive electrode fluid.
  • Diaphragm – a specially shaped polymer film, the film has a microporous structure, which allows lithium ions to pass freely, but electrons cannot.
  • Anode—the active material is graphite, or carbon with a similar graphite structure, and the conductive current collector uses an electrolytic copper foil with a thickness of 7-15 microns.
  • Organic Electrolyte – A carbonate-based solvent in which lithium hexafluorophosphate is dissolved, and a gel-like electrolyte is used for polymers.
  • Battery case – divided into steel case (square type is rarely used), aluminum case, nickel- plated iron case (used for cylindrical batteries), aluminum-plastic film (soft packaging), etc., as well as battery caps, it is also the positive and negative terminals of the battery.

Blender
Control Points:
  • Keep the equipment dry and control the temperature and humidity of the workshop.
  • The positive electrode dehydrates the raw material, and it is generally baked at 120°C for about 2 hours under normal pressure.
  • Dehydration of NMP. Use dry molecular sieve for dehydration or use special reclaiming facilities for direct use.
  • After adding the conductive agent and active material, the slurry should be uniform, no there are agglomerated particles, and the air bubbles in the slurry should be removed.
  • The dissolution process of PVDF is relatively slow. Before pulping, PVDF should be dissolved in NMP in advance. CMC is also a difficult solution. Before pulping, CMC should be dissolved in water in advance. PVDF and CMC should be fully dissolved and dispersed evenly. If there is a particle binder or thickener must be added when stirring or change the mixing process from time to time.
  • The mixer work is divided into four stages, the first and second stages are not Turn on the vacuum, and do not adjust the speed of stirring and dispersing too much High, to initially complete shearing, dispersion, kneading, collision, emulsification after the process, the slurry reaches a certain degree of fineness, uniformity and viscosity.
  • Vacuum after request.
Precautions:
  • Once a problem is found during operation, it must be recorded and notified to the relevant departments in time, so that it can be cleaned up in time
  • Except for the necessary maintenance personnel, it is strictly forbidden for non-personnel to operate the equipment or change the parameters
  • The concentration (solid content) of the slurry should be gradually adjusted from high to low to avoid increasing trouble;
  • During the intermittent process of stirring, attention should be paid to scraping the edges and bottoms to ensure uniform dispersion;
  • The slurry should not be put on hold for a long time to avoid precipitation or decrease in uniformity;
  • The materials to be baked must be sealed and cooled before they can be added to avoid changes in the properties of the components;
  • The length of the stirring time is mainly based on the performance of the equipment and the number of materials added;
  • The use of the stirring paddle is replaced by the difficulty of slurry dispersion. If it cannot be replaced, the speed can be adjusted from slow to fast to avoid damage to the equipment;
  • Screen the slurry before discharging to remove large particles to prevent belt breakage during coating;

  • The thin layer of slurry on the aluminium foil is dried in the oven to remove the NMP solvent (NMP boiling point 202 °C, flash point 95 °C). Drying too slowly, the coating surface is fluid, the thickness is unstable, drying is too fast, and the surface is deformed. To form a PVDF film layer, the volatilization of the internal NMP solvent will cause the surface layer to wrinkle. In order to ensure the uniform evaporation of NMP, stage drying is usually used, and the temperature in the middle section is the highest. The positive electrode is generally 100-130 °C, and if the negative electrode adopts a water- based system, the drying temperature is generally 75-90 °C; and the NMP volatilizes during the drying process, and the composition of the coating slurry changes constantly, so the amount of NMP solvent used to prepare the slurry, the temperature increases the method and heating time have an impact on this;
