The present application relates to a technical field of modifying natural polymer materials, particularly a high-viscosity lithium carboxymethyl cellulose and preparation method therefor and application thereof.
With a rapid development of products of 3C and new energy power, they have higher requirements for an energy density and an electrochemical performance of a lithium-ion battery. There are two directions to increase the energy density, one of which is to develop active materials with high energy density such as high-nickel material, silicon-carbon material, and silicon-oxide material; the other of which is to reduce an application amount of additives in a slurry system, so as to increase an addition amount of the active materials, for example, by using a conductive agent with high conductivity, an adhesive with high viscosity, a dispersant having good dispersing performance and the like.
Lithium carboxymethyl cellulose plays roles of stabilizing a slurry, dispersing active substances and assisting adhering in a preparation of the slurry of a negative electrode plate of a lithium-ion battery. However, the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose belongs to a polymer material having poorer conductive performance, which may inhibit an exhibition of the electrochemical performance of the active substances while coated on the active substances. Furthermore, the viscosity of the existing lithium carboxymethyl cellulose is limited, therefore the addition amount is larger, usually 1.0% to 1.5%, which further increases the production cost, moreover, a performance in carboxymethyl cellulose still has much space for promotion.
In view of this, the present application provides a lithium carboxymethyl cellulose with high viscosity, which can reduce an application amount of the lithium carboxymethyl cellulose in preparing a negative electrode plate of a lithium-ion battery, and can promote an energy density and an electrochemical performance of the lithium-ion battery.

A preparation method for a high-viscosity lithium carboxymethyl cellulose, comprises the following steps:
mixing a cellulose, a cross-linking agent, and a sodium hydroxide solution in an ethanol solution, filling with nitrogen gas to form an inert atmosphere after vacuumizing to remove air, performing an alkalization reaction under the inert atmosphere, subjecting a reaction product to an etherification under normal pressure to obtain a crude CMC-Na; acidifying the crude CMC-Na to obtain a CMC-H; adding the prepared CMC-H into a lithium salt-ethanol solution to perform a substitution reaction, to obtain the high-viscosity lithium carboxymethyl cellulose.

A purpose for vacuumizing is to eliminate air for avoiding oxygen in the air from oxidizing the cellulose, which results in a molecular chain getting shortened to reduce viscosity. After vacuumizing, filling with nitrogen to form an inert atmosphere is to prevent air from entering the reactor again. Repeatedly vacuumizing-filling with nitrogen operations are both to secure the reactor to be an environment free of air and free of oxygen. Finally, the whole process of the alkalization reaction requires that a pressure of nitrogen gas is maintained at 3 to 10 KPa, which is a slightly barotropic state fully filled with the inert gas, and its purpose is to prevent air from entering the reactor, so as to not carry in oxygen.
