This application claims priority to Korean Patent Application No. 10-2022-0145627, filed on Nov. 3, 2022, and all the benefits accruing therefrom under 35 U.S.C. § 119, the contents of which in its entirety are herein incorporated by reference.
The present invention relates to a pouch film for a secondary battery with controlled thickness parameters according to an extrusion lamination and a method for preparing the same, and more particularly, relates to a pouch film for a secondary battery with controlled thickness parameters according to an extrusion lamination wherein the pouch film for a secondary battery has excellent peel strength, formability, insulation, bending, and curling, especially suitable for medium-sized to large-sized batteries, and a method for preparing the pouch film, a secondary battery using the pouch film and a method for manufacturing the secondary battery.
Lithium secondary batteries (LiB) are being applied to many applications based on various advantages such as high energy density and excellent output.
As a laminated film for encasing a secondary battery, with a multi-layer structure that surrounds an electrode group and an electrolyte of the secondary battery, a secondary battery pouch film is a key component material that determines the battery's stability, lifespan characteristics, and operational sustainability and requires mechanical flexibility and strength, high oxygen/water vapor barrier properties, high thermal sealing strength, chemical resistance to electrolyte solutions, electrical insulation, and high temperature stability.
The secondary battery pouch film usually consists of an outer layer, a barrier layer, and a sealant layer inside.
The outer layer or outermost layer is made of nylon, a blend of nylon and polyethylene terephthalate (PET), oriented polypropylene (OPP), polyethylene, and the like. The outer layer or outermost layer requires heat resistance, pinhole resistance, chemical resistance, formability, and insulation, etc.
The barrier layer requires formability as well as barrier properties against water vapor and other gases. In this respect, metals with formability such as aluminum (Al), iron (Fe), copper (Cu), and nickel (Ni) etc. are used in the barrier layer, and aluminum is currently used the most.
Since the sealant layer which is an inner layer is in contact with the electrolyte, it requires electrolyte resistance, and insulation resistance etc. as well as thermal adhesiveness and formability.
As the application of lithium secondary batteries (LiB) is expanded from small-sized to medium-sized to large-sized fields such as automobiles and/or ESS, secondary battery pouch films also need characteristics suitable for medium-sized to large-sized fields.
In this regard, the cell size of lithium secondary batteries (LiB) for automobiles and the forming depth of secondary battery pouches are factors that may greatly affect secondary battery capacity. The cell size thereof is larger than that of general small-sized secondary batteries and most secondary battery pouches are produced by double forming, which requires high formability. In addition, the forming depth of the secondary battery pouches determines the capacity of the cells. Thus, the deeper forming is essential to reach 700 Wh/L, which is the required capacity of next-generation secondary batteries. Accordingly, together with excellent formability, excellent properties of curling, insulation, bending, and peel strength etc. are required.
In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, in one aspect, an object is to provide a pouch film for a secondary battery having excellent properties of curling, insulation, bending, and peel strength as well as excellent formability, and a method for preparing the pouch film, a secondary battery using the pouch film and a method for manufacturing the secondary battery.
In exemplary embodiments of the present invention, a secondary battery pouch film which satisfies the following [Equation 1] is provided, the secondary battery pouch film comprising an outer layer, a metal layer, and a sealant layer, wherein the sealant layer comprises a cast polypropylene (CPP) layer and an extruded polypropylene (PP) layer.

Experiment Method
In examples and comparative examples, the outer layer is composed of a mixed layer of nylon and PET, and the metal layer is made of aluminum foil, and a thickness ratio of each layer is adjusted as shown in the tables below.
In addition, peel strength, formability, insulation, curling, and bending are evaluated using the methods described below.
Peel Strength Evaluation
Specimens are prepared by cutting the secondary battery pouch film manufactured in examples and comparative examples into 15 mm width (MD) and 150 mm length (TD). After peeling off the metal layer and the sealant layer, the peel strength is measured at a speed of 50 mm/min and a degree of 90°.
The peel strength measurement value must be 8 N or higher to be evaluated as good.
Curling Evaluation
Specimens are prepared by cutting the secondary battery pouch film manufactured in examples and comparative examples into 150 mm MD and 150 mm TD. The sealant layer of the specimen is turned upward and four sides thereof are secured to a glass plate with tape, and then the specimen is cut diagonally with a knife to form an X shape in the center of the specimen. Each side of the X shape is cut to have a length of 140 mm, and the height of the end of the specimen cut from the bottom to the center and curled is measured. For reference,
The curling measurement value must be less than 20 mm to be evaluated as good.
Formability Evaluation
Specimens are prepared by cutting the secondary battery pouch manufactured in examples and comparative examples into 15 mm MD and 15 mm TD. The prepared specimens are formed using a mold (size of 3 cm×4 cm). The formability evaluation is repeated by changing the forming depth until 10 or more specimens are not broken. The forming depth is measured when 10 or more specimens are not broken.
The formability measurement value must be 6 mm or more to be evaluated as good.
Insulation Evaluation
Specimens are prepared by forming the secondary battery pouch film prepared in examples and comparative examples to a depth of 6 mm or to a maximum forming depth when the forming depth is less than 6 mm by using a mold (size of 3 cm×4 cm). 2 mL of electrolyte is injected into the formed specimens and a lead tab is inserted to seal all three sides. After leaving the sealed specimens at room temperature for 24 hours, a voltage of 500 V is applied to measure insulation. The evaluation results are as follows:

Specimens manufactured identically to the specimens for the insulation evaluation are prepared.
That is, specimens are prepared by forming the secondary battery pouch film prepared in examples and comparative examples to a depth of 6 mm using a mold (size of 3 cm×4 cm). The secondary battery pouch film is formed at a maximum forming depth when the forming depth is 6 mm or less. 2 mL of electrolyte is injected into the formed specimens and a lead tab is inserted to seal all three sides. After leaving the sealed sample at room temperature for 24 hours, a voltage of 500 V is applied to select specimens with an insulation measurement value of 1 GΩ or more. Among the heat-sealed sides, one side without the lead tab is repeatedly folded and unfolded. The number of times one side is repeatedly bent is measured until the insulation measurement value become 1 GΩ or less. The evaluation results are as follows:

As can be seen from the above experimental results, when A+B<1.354 and 0.6≤C, peel strength, formability, insulation, and bending are excellent (examples 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 11). In particular, when A+B<1.354 and 0.6≤C≤1.0 (examples 1, 2, 4, 5), not only peel strength, formability, insulation, and bending are excellent, but curling is also excellent. When A+B<1.354 and C>1.0, curling tends to deteriorate (examples 3, 6, 7, and 11).
When A+B>1.354 and C<0.6, peel strength and formability deteriorate (comparative examples 1, 2, and 3). In addition, when A+B<1.354 and C<0.6, the bending deteriorates, and when C<0.33 (including the case where C=0), the peel strength also deteriorates (comparative examples 4, 5, 6, 8, 9, 10).
