Poly(ethylene glycol)를 첨가한 이차전지용 poly(vinylidene fluoride) 미세다공성 분리막의 제조와 물성

국문 초록 (Abstract)

본 연구에서는 기존의 이차전지의 분리막보다 좋은 성능으로 각광받고 있는 PVdF (poly(vinylidene fluoride))에 공극률을 높여 전지의 성능을 향상시켜주는 수용성 고분자인 PEG (Poly(ethylene glycol))를 첨가하여 충전용 리튬 이차전지의 분리막을 상전이 방법으로 제조하였다. 용매인 DMF (N,N-dimethylformamide)에 PVdF-PEG를 단일상으로 녹인 후 깨끗한 유리판에 캐스팅하여 막을 얻었다. 기공은 증류수로 채워진 응고조에서 용매-빈용매 교환으로 형성되어진다. 주사전자현미경(scanning electron microscopy, SEM)을 이용하여 분리막의 단면 관찰을 통해 다공성을 확인하였고 UTM (universal testing machine)을 이용하여 기계적 물성을 확인하였다. PEG-10의 정체시간 30 s에서 균일한 스폰지 구조를 확인할 수 있었으며, 이는 87%의 뛰어난 공극률을 가지며 인장강도의 경우 PEG-10에서 3.72 MPa로 가장 크게 나타났고, 신장률과 모듈러스 부분에서도 역시 75.45%와 275.27 MPa로 뛰어난 성능을 나타냈다.

다국어 초록 (Multilingual Abstract)

Poly(vinylidene fluoride) has received much attention in the last several years for the lithium secondary batteries. In this study, to enhance the porosity, PVdF was prepared by phase inversion method using as an additive, PEG (poly(ethylene glycol)), with N,N-dimethylformamid as a solvent. The pores are generated during the solvent and non-solvent exchange process in the coagulation bath filled with non-solvent (distilled water). The surface and cross-section of the membranes were observed with a scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The mechanical property of the membrane was determined by using an universal testing machine (UTM) and thermal property was verified by heat shrinkage. Uniformed sponge structure of PVdF-PEG membrane for the lithium secondary batteries was prepared with 10 wt% of PEG concentration in the PVdF-PEG solution. Porosity, elongation and tensile strengh of the membrane were 87%, 75.45%, and 275. 27 MPa respectively.
