Description

【0001】
【発明の属する技術分野】
本発明は、リチウムイオン電池、リチウムポリマー電池等の外装材として好適な電池外装用フィルムに関するものである。
【0002】
【従来の技術】
最近の携帯電話、ノートブック型のパソコン、ヘッドフォンステレオ等のエレクトロニクス機器に対する軽量小型化の要求に伴って、バリヤー層にアルミニウム箔を使用した積層フィルムを外装材として使用されるようになってきている。しかしながら、長期保存等において大気中の水分が容器内に浸入し、これが電解質と反応してフッ酸(オキシフッ化リン化合物を含む酸性物質)を生成し、これがシーラント層を透過してアルミニウム箔に作用して、アルミニウム箔とシーラント層との剥離を発生させるとともに、アルミニウム箔自体を腐食するという問題があった。
【0003】
このような問題を解決する目的で、アルミニウム箔に表面処理を施すことが提案されている。例えば、特開2001−57181号公報には少なくとも片面をリン酸塩、クロム酸、クロム酸塩、フッ酸、フッ酸塩で処理したアルミニウム箔を使用することによって、耐食性を向上させることが、特開2000−357494号公報には、少なくとも片面にクロメート処理、例えば、酸化クロムとアクリル酸とを主成分とする水溶液を塗布し、加熱及び乾燥することにより形成されたクロム化成皮膜が設けられた金属箔を使用することが記載されている。更に、特開2001−6631号公報、特開2001−35453号公報、特開2001−35455号公報、特開2001−93482号公報、特開2001−155697号公報、特開2001−176466号公報、特開2001−196036号公報にも電池外装用フィルムのバリヤー層として表面にクロメート処理等の化成処理を施したアルミニウム箔を使用する旨が記載されている。
【0004】
確かにアルミニウム箔の表面に各種化成処理を施すことによって耐食性は付与されるのであるが、特開2000−357494号公報にも記載されているようにアルマイト処理皮膜やジルコニウム化成処理皮膜或いはチタン化成皮膜では上述した剥離を有効に防止できず、電池の外装用フィルムとして十分な耐食性を付与するためにはクロメート処理するしかないのが現状であった。しかも、十分な耐食性を付与するためには毒性が強く、環境上問題がある6価クロムイオンを含有させたクロメート処理液をやむを得ず使用せざるを得ないという問題があった(特開2001−196036号公報)。
【0005】
【発明が解決しようとする課題】
本発明は、上記問題を解決して6価クロムを使用することなく、十分な耐食性を有する電池の外装用フィルムを提供することを目的とする。
【0006】
【課題を解決する手段】
本発明者等は鋭意検討した結果、バリヤー層として特定のクロメート処理を施したアルミニウム箔を使用した電池外装用フィルムが3価クロムを使用しているにもかかわらず十分な耐食性を発揮することを見出し本発明に到った。
【0007】
すなわち、本発明は、次の電池外装用フィルムに関するものである。
(1)保護層、バリヤー層、シーラント層からなる電池外装用フィルムにおいて、バリヤー層が、下記化学式Iで表されるモノマーを構成単位とする単独若しくは共重合体からなる水溶性ポリマー(A)と水溶性3価クロム化合物(B)とを重量比で(A):(B)が2:1〜1:2になるように混合してなる水溶液をアルミニウム箔の少なくともシーラント層面側の表面に塗布後、加熱処理して得られる塗布型クロメート処理が施されたアルミニウム箔であることを特徴とする電池外装用フィルム。
化学式I: CH=CR−CONR
(式中、Rは水素原子又はメチル基、R及びRは水素原子、炭素数1〜4のアルキル基、ベンジル基又は炭素数2若しくは3のヒドロキシアルキル基を表す。)
(2)水溶性3価クロム化合物がフッ化クロム(CrF)であることを特徴とする(1)記載の電池外装用フィルム。
【0008】
【実施の形態】
以下に、本発明の実施の形態を詳細に説明する。
まず、本発明の電池外装用フィルムは保護層、バリヤー層、シーラント層を構成要素とするものであり、例えば、保護層/バリヤー層/シーラント層の三層フィルム、或いは保護層/バリヤー層/中間層/シーラント層の四層フィルムが挙げられる。
保護層は、電池の最外層を構成するものであってハードウェアと直接接触することからある程度強靭で、絶縁性を有するものが好ましく、例えば、延伸ポリエステル又は延伸ナイロンが用いられる。ポリエステル樹脂としては、ポリエチレンテレフタレート、ポリブチレンテレフタレート、ポリエチレンナフタレート、共重合ポリエステル等が挙げられる。ナイロンとしては、ナイロン6、ナイロン6,6、ナイロン6,6とナイロン6の共重合体、ナイロン6,10、ポリメタキシリレンアジパミボ(MXD6)が挙げられる。また、保護層は上記樹脂の単層フィルムでも良いし、他のフィルムと複合した積層フィルムであってもよい。更に、保護層の厚みは6μm以上、好ましくは12〜30μmである。
【0009】
シーラント層は、シール強度、密封性に優れるポリプロピレン、エチレン−プロピレン共重合体、ポリエチレン、エチレン−α−オレフィン共重合体、エチレン−酢酸ビニル共重合体、金属イオン架橋ポリエチレン、或いは酸変性ポリオレフィンから選ばれる単独又は二種以上混合物からなるポリオレフィン系の単層、又は多層フィルムが挙げられる。また、シーラント層の厚みは十分なシール強度を発揮させる上で20μm以上、好ましくは30〜50μmである。
【0010】
更に、バリヤー層には下記の化学式Iで表されるモノマーを構成単位とする単独若しくは共重合体からなる水溶性ポリマー(A)と水溶性3価クロム化合物(B)とを重量比で(A):(B)が2:1〜1:2、好ましくは1:1〜1:2になるように混合してなる水溶液をアルミニウム箔の少なくともシーラント層面側の表面に塗布後、120〜200℃で加熱処理して得られる塗布型クロメート処理が施されたアルミニウム箔を使用する。ここで使用されるアルミニウム箔としては従来公知の純アルミニウム及びアルミニウム合金が使用でき、その厚みは15〜150μm、好ましくは30〜60μmである。
化学式I: CH=CR−CONR
(式中、Rは水素原子又はメチル基、R及びRは水素原子、炭素数1〜4のアルキル基、ベンジル基又は炭素数2若しくは3のヒドロキシアルキル基を表す。)
【0011】
すなわち、本発明においては、アルミニウム箔の表面を塗布型クロメート処理するにあたり、耐食性を付与する上で必要不可欠とされていた6価クロムを含有した処理液ではなく、後述する特定の水溶性ポリマー(A)と水溶性3価クロム化合物(B)を特定割合で混合してなる処理液(水溶液)を使用するのである。
【0012】
ここで、水溶性ポリマー(A)としては、アクリルアミド、メタクリルアミド、N−メチルアクリルアミド、N,N−ジメチルアクリルアミド等の上記化学式1で表されるモノマーを構成単位とする単独或いは共重合体のうち水溶性を有するものであり、例えば、ポリアクリルアミド、アクリルアミドとジメチルアミノ・メタクリルアミドの共重合体、アクリルアミドとジメチルアミノプロピル・アクリルアミドの共重合体、アクリルアミドと2−ヒドロキシエチルアクリレートの共重合体、アクリルアミドとメタクリロキシエチルホスフェートの共重合体、アクリルアミドとアクリル酸ナトリウムの共重合体等が挙げられる。なお、水溶性ポリマー(A)が共重合体の場合、化学式Iで表されるモノマーと他の共重合モノマーの比率については水溶性を付与できる範囲であれば特に制限はない。一方、水溶性3価クロム化合物(B)としては、従来公知のものが使用できるが、本発明においてはフッ化クロム(CrF)を使用するのが好ましい。
【0013】
また、処理液は、上述した水溶性ポリマー(A)と水溶性3価クロム化合物(B)とを含有する水溶液であることを必須要件とするのであるが、更に水溶液中の水溶性ポリマー(A)と水溶性3価クロム化合物(B)の混合割合を(A):(B)が重量比で2:1〜1:2になるようにする必要がある。混合割合がこの範囲外では耐食性が不足するばかりか、処理皮膜とアルミニウム箔との密着性が悪くなるので好ましくない。そして、本発明においてはバリヤー層として、アルミニウム箔の少なくともシーラント層面側の表面に上記処理液を塗布し、加熱処理することによって塗布型クロメート皮膜が形成されたアルミニウム箔を使用するのである。なお、アルミニウム箔に塗布する処理液の塗布量は、金属クロム換算で5〜20mg/cm、好ましくは7〜15mg/cmになるように適宜選択すればよい。
【0014】
【実施例】
以下に、本発明を実施例によって具体的に説明する。
まず、アルミニウム箔の表面へのクロメート処理条件と得られた皮膜の耐食性、及びアルミニウム箔と皮膜との密着性について検討した。
クロメート処理液としては、水溶性ポリマー(A)としてのポリアクリルアミドの1.8wt%水溶液(A剤)と、水溶性3価クロム(B)としてのフッ化クロム(CrF)の1.8wt%水溶液(B剤)とを所定割合で混合して使用した。
【0015】
クロメート処理を施したアルミニウム箔の耐食性、密着性は以下の方法で評価した。なお、電池外装用フィルムにおけるアルミニウム箔とシーラント層との剥離やアルミニウム箔の腐食がフッ酸によると考えられている。したがって、本発明における耐食性は後述する耐電解液特性に相当するものと考えられる。また、耐食性(耐電解液特性)は本来長期にわたって使用した場合に起こる問題であることから、長期間の試験が必要であるが、その傾向を短期間で把握するため本発明においては、耐食性を濃塩酸に対する抵抗性で評価したものである。
<耐食性>
塗布型クロメート処理を施したアルミニウム箔のクロメート処理面上に濃塩酸(約12N)を1ml滴下し、反応の有無及びその様子を目視にて下記の基準に従って評価した。
◎:ほとんど反応しない(耐食性良好)
○:少し反応する(耐食性やや良)
△:音を立ててやや激しく反応する(耐食性やや不良)
×:音を立てて激しく反応する(反応後のアルミニウム箔は黒変)(耐食性不良)
<密着性>
塗布型クロメート処理アルミニウム箔のクロメート処理面に粘着テープ(PP)を貼り合わせ、次いでその粘着テープを剥がした後に、上述した耐食性試験を行った。アルミニウム箔と皮膜の密着性が良好な場合は粘着テープを剥がした後でも、クロメート処理面が残存しているので耐食性は変化しないと考えられる。したがって、密着性の評価基準は耐食性の場合と同じである。
【0016】
製造例1〜9
A4サイズの厚み40μmのアルミニウム箔(Fe=1.3wt%含有)上にバーコーターを用いて表1に示す比率でA剤とB剤を混合した処理液の塗布量が20g/mになるように塗布した後、180℃で3分乾燥して塗布型クロメート処理皮膜を形成した。得られたアルミニウム箔の耐食性、密着性を同じく表1に示す。
【0017】
【表1】

Figure 0004105918
【0018】
表1から明らかなように、A剤とB剤の重量割合が2:1〜1:2のクロメート処理剤で処理した本発明にかかるアルミニウム箔(製造例4〜6)は耐食性、密着性ともに優れた性質を示したのに対して、A剤のみで処理したアルミニウム箔(製造例2)、B剤のみで処理したアルミニウム箔(製造例9)は表面処理した効果は見られず無処理のアルミニウム箔(製造例1)と同等の耐食性であった。更に、A剤とB剤の混合割合が本発明の範囲外であるアルミニウム箔(製造例3、7、8)は多少の耐食性は有していたが、電池外装用フィルムとしては不十分であった。
【0019】
実施例1
保護層として厚みが25μmの2軸延伸ナイロンフィルム、バリヤー層として厚み40μmのアルミニウム箔(Fe=1.3wt%含有)の表面に、A剤とB剤の混合割合が1:1の処理液を金属クロム換算で塗布量が10mg/mになるように塗布後、150℃の熱風で乾燥、硬化させて塗布型クロメート処理を施したクロメート処理アルミニウム箔、シーラント層として厚み30μmのエチレン・プロピレンランダムコポリマー(エチレン含有量:3.0wt%)フィルムをクロメート処理面がシーラント層側になるようにエポキシ含有ポリエステルポリウレタン接着剤を使用してドライラミネートして保護層/接着剤/バリヤー層/接着剤/シーラント層なる構成の電池外装用フィルムを得た。得られた電池外装用フィルムのヒートシール強度、耐電解液特性、密封性を測定した結果、ヒートシール強度は56N/15mm、耐電解液特性は良好で、密封性も水分透過量が830ppmと良好な結果を示し、電池外装用フィルムとして好適であった。
【0020】
なお、上述したヒートシール強度、耐電解液特性、密封性は以下の方法で測定評価した。
<ヒートシール強度>
電池外装用フィルムのシーラント面同士をシール幅10mm、シール温度180℃、圧力0.3MPa、時間4秒でシールして、200mm/分の引っ張り速度でヒートシール強度を測定した。
<耐電解液特性>
電池外装用フィルムを100×180mmの大きさに切断し、長辺70mm、短辺35mm、成形深さ5mmに深絞り成形して容器となし、それを電解液(組成:EC/EMC=1:1 LiPF 1M)に浸漬して80℃で10日間保持してシーラント層の剥離の有無で評価した。
<密封性>
上記成形容器に電解液(組成:EC/EMC=1:1 LiPF 1M)を5ml充填し、容器に使用したと同じ電池外装用フィルムを蓋材として使用して、インパルスシーラーによりシール幅10mmで4方シールし、80℃、90%RH雰囲気下で1週間保持し、経時後電解液中の水分量の増減をカールフィッシャー法で測定した。
【0021】
【効果】
本発明によって、電池外装用フィルムに必要とされる耐食性が付与されたアルミニウム箔を安全性の高い3価クロムを使用しているにもかかわらず提供することが可能となったので、従来にも増して環境に優しく、しかも安全性に長期使用が可能な電池を製造することが可能となった。[0001]
BACKGROUND OF THE INVENTION
The present invention relates to a battery exterior film suitable as an exterior material for lithium ion batteries, lithium polymer batteries, and the like.
[0002]
[Prior art]
Along with recent demands for lightweight and compact electronic devices such as mobile phones, notebook computers, and headphone stereos, laminated films using aluminum foil as a barrier layer have come to be used as exterior materials. . However, during long-term storage, moisture in the atmosphere enters the container, which reacts with the electrolyte to produce hydrofluoric acid (an acidic substance containing a phosphorus oxyfluoride compound), which permeates the sealant layer and acts on the aluminum foil. As a result, peeling between the aluminum foil and the sealant layer occurs, and the aluminum foil itself corrodes.
[0003]
In order to solve such a problem, it has been proposed to subject the aluminum foil to a surface treatment. For example, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-57181 discloses that corrosion resistance is improved by using an aluminum foil that is treated with phosphate, chromic acid, chromate, hydrofluoric acid, or hydrofluoric acid at least on one side. Kai 2000-357494 discloses a metal provided with a chromium conversion coating formed on at least one surface by applying a chromate treatment, for example, an aqueous solution mainly composed of chromium oxide and acrylic acid, and heating and drying. The use of foil is described. Furthermore, JP 2001-6631 A, JP 2001-35453 A, JP 2001-35455 A, JP 2001-93482 A, JP 2001-155697 A, JP 2001-176466 A, Japanese Patent Application Laid-Open No. 2001-196036 also describes that an aluminum foil having a surface subjected to a chemical conversion treatment such as a chromate treatment is used as a barrier layer of a battery exterior film.
[0004]
Certainly, corrosion resistance is imparted by performing various chemical conversion treatments on the surface of the aluminum foil, but as described in JP-A-2000-357494, an alumite treatment coating, zirconium chemical conversion coating or titanium chemical conversion coating is also provided. However, the above-mentioned peeling cannot be effectively prevented, and in order to give sufficient corrosion resistance as a film for battery exterior, the current situation is that only chromate treatment is required. Moreover, in order to provide sufficient corrosion resistance, there is a problem that a chromate treatment solution containing hexavalent chromium ions, which is highly toxic and has environmental problems, is unavoidably used (Japanese Patent Laid-Open No. 2001-196036). Issue gazette).
[0005]
[Problems to be solved by the invention]
An object of the present invention is to solve the above problems and provide a battery exterior film having sufficient corrosion resistance without using hexavalent chromium.
[0006]
[Means for solving the problems]
As a result of intensive studies, the present inventors have shown that a battery exterior film using an aluminum foil subjected to a specific chromate treatment as a barrier layer exhibits sufficient corrosion resistance despite the use of trivalent chromium. The present invention has been reached.
[0007]
That is, the present invention relates to the following battery exterior film.
(1) A battery exterior film comprising a protective layer, a barrier layer, and a sealant layer, wherein the barrier layer comprises a water-soluble polymer (A) comprising a monomer represented by the following chemical formula I as a constituent unit or a copolymer: An aqueous solution obtained by mixing the water-soluble trivalent chromium compound (B) in a weight ratio of (A) :( B) of 2: 1 to 1: 2 is applied to at least the surface of the sealant layer side of the aluminum foil. A film for battery exterior, characterized in that it is an aluminum foil that has been subjected to a coating-type chromate treatment obtained by heat treatment.
Formula I: CH 2 = CR 1 -CONR 2 R 3
(In the formula, R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R 2 and R 3 represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a benzyl group, or a hydroxyalkyl group having 2 or 3 carbon atoms.)
(2) The film for battery exterior according to (1), wherein the water-soluble trivalent chromium compound is chromium fluoride (CrF 3 ).
[0008]
Embodiment
Hereinafter, embodiments of the present invention will be described in detail.
First, the film for battery exterior of the present invention comprises a protective layer, a barrier layer, and a sealant layer, for example, a three-layer film of protective layer / barrier layer / sealant layer, or protective layer / barrier layer / intermediate layer. A four-layer film of layer / sealant layer may be mentioned.
The protective layer constitutes the outermost layer of the battery and is preferably tough to some extent because it is in direct contact with the hardware and has an insulating property. For example, stretched polyester or stretched nylon is used. Examples of the polyester resin include polyethylene terephthalate, polybutylene terephthalate, polyethylene naphthalate, and copolyester. Examples of nylon include nylon 6, nylon 6,6, a copolymer of nylon 6,6 and nylon 6, nylon 6,10, and polymetaxylylene adipamibo (MXD6). The protective layer may be a single layer film of the above resin or a laminated film combined with another film. Furthermore, the thickness of the protective layer is 6 μm or more, preferably 12 to 30 μm.
[0009]
The sealant layer is selected from polypropylene, ethylene-propylene copolymer, polyethylene, ethylene-α-olefin copolymer, ethylene-vinyl acetate copolymer, metal ion cross-linked polyethylene, or acid-modified polyolefin that has excellent sealing strength and sealing properties. Examples thereof include a single-layer polyolefin film or a multilayer film composed of a single kind or a mixture of two or more kinds. Further, the thickness of the sealant layer is 20 μm or more, preferably 30 to 50 μm, in order to exhibit sufficient sealing strength.
[0010]
Further, the barrier layer comprises a water-soluble polymer (A) composed of a monomer or a copolymer having a monomer represented by the following chemical formula I as a constituent unit and a water-soluble trivalent chromium compound (B) in a weight ratio (A ): After applying an aqueous solution obtained by mixing so that (B) is 2: 1 to 1: 2, preferably 1: 1 to 1: 2, on at least the surface of the sealant layer side of the aluminum foil, 120 to 200 ° C. The aluminum foil to which the coating-type chromate treatment obtained by heat treatment is applied is used. As the aluminum foil used here, conventionally known pure aluminum and aluminum alloy can be used, and the thickness thereof is 15 to 150 μm, preferably 30 to 60 μm.
Formula I: CH 2 = CR 1 -CONR 2 R 3
(In the formula, R 1 represents a hydrogen atom or a methyl group, R 2 and R 3 represent a hydrogen atom, an alkyl group having 1 to 4 carbon atoms, a benzyl group, or a hydroxyalkyl group having 2 or 3 carbon atoms.)
[0011]
That is, in the present invention, when the surface of the aluminum foil is subjected to the coating-type chromate treatment, a specific water-soluble polymer (described later) is used instead of a treatment liquid containing hexavalent chromium which has been indispensable for imparting corrosion resistance. A treatment liquid (aqueous solution) obtained by mixing A) and a water-soluble trivalent chromium compound (B) at a specific ratio is used.
[0012]
Here, the water-soluble polymer (A) is a single or copolymer having a monomer represented by the above chemical formula 1 such as acrylamide, methacrylamide, N-methylacrylamide, N, N-dimethylacrylamide or the like as a structural unit. Water-soluble, for example, polyacrylamide, acrylamide and dimethylamino methacrylamide copolymer, acrylamide and dimethylaminopropyl acrylamide copolymer, acrylamide and 2-hydroxyethyl acrylate copolymer, acrylamide And a copolymer of methacryloxyethyl phosphate, a copolymer of acrylamide and sodium acrylate, and the like. In the case where the water-soluble polymer (A) is a copolymer, the ratio of the monomer represented by the chemical formula I and the other copolymerization monomer is not particularly limited as long as water solubility can be imparted. On the other hand, as the water-soluble trivalent chromium compound (B), conventionally known compounds can be used, but in the present invention, it is preferable to use chromium fluoride (CrF 3 ).
[0013]
The treatment liquid must be an aqueous solution containing the above-mentioned water-soluble polymer (A) and the water-soluble trivalent chromium compound (B), but the water-soluble polymer (A ) And the water-soluble trivalent chromium compound (B) must be such that (A) :( B) has a weight ratio of 2: 1 to 1: 2. If the mixing ratio is outside this range, not only the corrosion resistance is insufficient, but also the adhesion between the treated film and the aluminum foil is deteriorated. In the present invention, as the barrier layer, an aluminum foil on which a coating type chromate film is formed by applying the above-mentioned treatment liquid to at least the surface of the sealant layer side of the aluminum foil and subjecting it to heat treatment is used. In addition, what is necessary is just to select suitably the application quantity of the process liquid apply | coated to aluminum foil so that it may become 5-20 mg / cm < 2 >, preferably 7-15 mg / cm < 2 > in conversion of metal chromium.
[0014]
【Example】
Hereinafter, the present invention will be specifically described by way of examples.
First, the chromate treatment conditions on the surface of the aluminum foil, the corrosion resistance of the obtained film, and the adhesion between the aluminum foil and the film were examined.
The chromate treatment solution includes a 1.8 wt% aqueous solution of polyacrylamide (A agent) as the water-soluble polymer (A) and 1.8 wt% of chromium fluoride (CrF 3 ) as the water-soluble trivalent chromium (B). The aqueous solution (B agent) was mixed at a predetermined ratio and used.
[0015]
The corrosion resistance and adhesion of the aluminum foil subjected to the chromate treatment were evaluated by the following methods. In addition, peeling of the aluminum foil and the sealant layer in the film for battery exterior and corrosion of the aluminum foil are considered to be caused by hydrofluoric acid. Accordingly, it is considered that the corrosion resistance in the present invention corresponds to the electrolytic solution characteristics described later. In addition, since corrosion resistance (electrolytic solution characteristics) is a problem that occurs when used over a long period of time, a long-term test is necessary. In order to grasp the tendency in a short period of time, in the present invention, corrosion resistance is It is evaluated by resistance to concentrated hydrochloric acid.
<Corrosion resistance>
1 ml of concentrated hydrochloric acid (about 12 N) was dropped on the chromate-treated surface of the aluminum foil subjected to the coating-type chromate treatment, and the presence or absence of the reaction and its appearance were visually evaluated according to the following criteria.
A: Almost no reaction (good corrosion resistance)
○: Slightly reacts (corrosion resistance is slightly good)
Δ: Slightly violent reaction (corrosion resistance is slightly poor)
×: Reacts violently with noise (the aluminum foil after reaction turns black) (poor corrosion resistance)
<Adhesion>
After the adhesive tape (PP) was bonded to the chromate-treated surface of the coated chromate-treated aluminum foil, and then the adhesive tape was peeled off, the above-described corrosion resistance test was performed. If the adhesion between the aluminum foil and the film is good, it is considered that the corrosion resistance does not change because the chromate-treated surface remains even after the adhesive tape is peeled off. Therefore, the evaluation criteria for adhesion are the same as in the case of corrosion resistance.
[0016]
Production Examples 1-9
Using a bar coater on an A4-sized 40 μm thick aluminum foil (containing Fe = 1.3 wt%), the coating amount of the treatment liquid in which the agent A and the agent B are mixed at a ratio shown in Table 1 is 20 g / m 2 . After coating, the coating-type chromate-treated film was formed by drying at 180 ° C. for 3 minutes. The corrosion resistance and adhesion of the obtained aluminum foil are also shown in Table 1.
[0017]
[Table 1]
Figure 0004105918
[0018]
As is apparent from Table 1, the aluminum foil according to the present invention (Production Examples 4 to 6) treated with a chromate treating agent having a weight ratio of A agent and B agent of 2: 1 to 1: 2 has both corrosion resistance and adhesion. The aluminum foil treated only with the agent A (Production Example 2) and the aluminum foil treated only with the Agent B (Production Example 9) were not treated with any effect, although they showed excellent properties. The corrosion resistance was equivalent to that of the aluminum foil (Production Example 1). Furthermore, the aluminum foil (Production Examples 3, 7, and 8) in which the mixing ratio of the agent A and the agent B is outside the scope of the present invention had some corrosion resistance, but was insufficient as a battery exterior film. It was.

On the surface of a 25 μm thick biaxially stretched nylon film as a protective layer and a 40 μm thick aluminum foil (containing Fe = 1.3 wt%) as a barrier layer, a treatment liquid with a mixing ratio of agent A and agent B is 1: 1. Chromate-treated aluminum foil that has been coated and coated with a coating-type chromate treatment after being applied with a coating amount of 10 mg / m 2 in terms of metallic chromium, dried and heated with hot air at 150 ° C., and 30 μm thick ethylene / propylene A copolymer (ethylene content: 3.0 wt%) film is dry laminated using an epoxy-containing polyester polyurethane adhesive so that the chromate-treated surface is on the sealant layer side, and then a protective layer / adhesive / barrier layer / adhesive / A film for battery exterior having a structure of a sealant layer was obtained. As a result of measuring the heat sealing strength, the electrolytic solution resistance, and the sealing property of the obtained battery exterior film, the heat sealing strength was 56 N / 15 mm, the electrolytic solution resistance was good, and the sealing property was also good at 830 ppm of moisture permeation. The result was favorable and was suitable as a battery exterior film.
[0020]
The heat seal strength, the electrolytic solution resistance, and the sealability described above were measured and evaluated by the following methods.
<Heat seal strength>
The sealant surfaces of the battery exterior film were sealed with a seal width of 10 mm, a seal temperature of 180 ° C., a pressure of 0.3 MPa, and a time of 4 seconds, and the heat seal strength was measured at a pulling rate of 200 mm / min.
<Electrolytic solution characteristics>
The film for battery exterior is cut into a size of 100 × 180 mm, and deep drawn to a long side of 70 mm, a short side of 35 mm, and a molding depth of 5 mm to form a container, which is made into an electrolyte (composition: EC / EMC = 1: 1 LiPF 6 1M) and kept at 80 ° C. for 10 days, and evaluated by the presence or absence of peeling of the sealant layer.
<Sealability>
The molded container is filled with 5 ml of electrolyte (composition: EC / EMC = 1: 1 LiPF 6 1M), and the same battery exterior film as that used for the container is used as a lid, and the seal width is 10 mm with an impulse sealer. Four-sided sealing was performed, and the mixture was kept at 80 ° C. and 90% RH for 1 week. After the elapse of time, the increase or decrease in the amount of water in the electrolyte was measured by the Karl Fischer method.
