Abstract

A method for manufacturing an electrode for an all solid battery including the steps of coating a current collector with a slurry including an active material, a conductive material, and a polyimide-based binder; and melting a solid electrolyte having a melting temperature of 50° C. to 500° C. and applying it onto the coating layer and an electrode manufactured therefrom.

Claims (25)

1. An electrode for an all solid battery comprising:

a current collector;

a coating layer formed on the current collector, which comprises an active material, a conductive material and a polyimide-based high heat-resisting binder, said polyimide-based binder having a melting temperature of 300° C. to 600° C.; and

a solid electrolyte having a melting temperature of 50° C. to 500° C. formed on the coating layer,

wherein the polyimide-based high heat-resisting binder comprises a polyimide compound of the following Formula A:

wherein R is alkyl or alkylene having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, and when R is at a terminal of Formula A, R is alkyl;

m is from 0 to 20, n is from 0 to 20, and 1 is from 0 to 20 wherein m+n+1≥1.

2. The electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the solid electrolyte is impregnated into pores in the coating layer.

3. The electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the electrode is a positive electrode or a negative electrode.

4. The electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the active material is a positive electrode active material or a negative electrode active material for the all solid battery.

5. The electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the conductive material comprises one selected from the group consisting of nickel powder, cobalt oxide, titanium oxide, Ketjen black, acetylene black, furnace black, graphite, carbon fiber, fullerene, and combinations thereof.

6. The electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the polyimide-based high heat-resisting binder is contained in an amount of 0.5 to 10 wt. % based on a total weight of the electrode.

7. The electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the solid electrolyte has a melting temperature of 200° C. to 500° C.

8. The electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 1 , wherein the solid electrolyte comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of Li 3-x ClO 1-x Hal x , Li (3-x) M x/2 OHal, Li 3-2x M x OHal, Li (3-x) N x/3 OHal1 and Li 2 (OH) 1-x Hal1 x Hal2 wherein M=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, or Sr; N=trivalent metal; Hal=F, Br, or I; Hal1, Hal2=F, Cl, Br, or I; 0≤X≤1).

9. An all solid battery comprising the electrode of claim 1 .

10. A method for manufacturing an electrode for an all solid battery according to claim 1 , comprising the steps of:

(a) coating a current collector with a slurry comprising an active material, a conductive material, and a polyimide-based high heat-resisting binder, said polyimide-based binder having a melting temperature of 300° C. to 600° C.; and

(b) placing a solid electrolyte having a melting temperature of 50° C. to 500° C. on the coating layer, followed by heating and melting the solid electrolyte,

wherein the polyimide-based high heat-resisting binder comprises a polyimide compound of the following Formula A:

wherein R is alkyl or alkylene having 1 to 20 carbon atoms, and when R is at a terminal of Formula A, R is alkyl;

m is from 0 to 20, n is from 0 to 20, and 1 is from 0 to 20 wherein m+n+1≥1.

11. The method for manufacturing the electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 10 , wherein the active material is a positive electrode active material or a negative electrode active material for the all solid battery.

12. The method for manufacturing the electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 10 , wherein the conductive material comprises one selected from the group consisting of nickel powder, cobalt oxide, titanium oxide, Ketjen black, acetylene black, furnace black, graphite, carbon fiber, fullerene, and combinations thereof.

13. The method for manufacturing the electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 10 , wherein the solid electrolyte has a melting temperature of 200° C. to 500° C.

14. The method for manufacturing the electrode for the all solid battery according to claim 10 , wherein the solid electrolyte comprises at least one selected from the group consisting of Li 3-x ClO 1-x Hal x , Li (3-x) M x/2 OHal, Li 3-2x M x OHal, Li (3-x) N x/3 OHal1 and Li 2 (OH) 1-x Hal1 x Hal2 wherein M=Mg, Ca, Sr, Ba, or Sr; N=trivalent metal; Hal=F, Br, or I; Hal1, Hal2=F, Cl, Br, or I; 0≤X≤1).
