Research and application of cathode cap sealing material
The application of the sealing material in the positive cap ensures the safe, stable and efficient operation of the battery. This paper will discuss the type and performance of the cathode cap sealing material of lithium iron phosphate monomer battery and its influence on the overall performance of the battery.
the function of the positive cap and the importance of sealing materials
The positive cap is a key component that connects the electrode with the external circuit, and the sealing performance is directly related to the safety and long-term stability of the battery. The sealing material mainly plays the role of the following aspects:
Prevent external pollution: good sealing can effectively prevent moisture, air and other external pollutants from entering the battery interior, prevent oxidation and corrosion of battery materials.
Electrolyte protection: The sealed design ensures that the electrolyte remains stable inside the positive cap to avoid degradation of battery performance due to leakage.
Enhanced structural stability: The sealing material also enhances the integrity of the battery structure, preventing damage caused by thermal expansion or mechanical stress during charging and discharging.
the type and performance of commonly used sealing materials
Polyethylene (PE)
Excellent corrosion resistance and high temperature resistance, can maintain good sealing effect in extreme environments, and is not easy to react with the internal components of the battery. However, Expensive, and in some cases less processable.
Polyurethane (PU)
Polyurethane sealing material has good flexibility, can effectively compensate for the deformation caused by temperature change and mechanical stress, and provide a good sealing effect. However, In low temperature environment, the hardness of polyurethane increases and the sealing performance may decrease.
Silicone
Silica gel material has good temperature resistance and elasticity, which can maintain flexibility in a large temperature range and provide effective sealing protection for the battery, but not very tolerant to some chemical solvents, and it may degrade under certain conditions.
Fluorine rubber
Fluorine rubber has excellent high temperature resistance, corrosion resistance characteristics, suitable for high-performance lithium battery applications, can effectively prevent electrolyte leakage. However, Fluorine rubber is relatively expensive and susceptible to ambient temperature changes.
Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE)
Thermoplastic elastomer (TPE) is combined with the plasticity of plastic and the elasticity of rubber, suitable for mass production, good sealing performance. However, Thermoplastic elastomer may lose some performance in some harsh chemical environments.
