substantially the same as in example 1, the difference is that: without treatment with the second treatment agent.

After 99.5% of polypropylene and 0.5% of triphenyl phosphite are mixed, a melt-biaxially oriented method is adopted to prepare the film, and the method comprises the following steps: mixing materials, melt extruding, casting, longitudinal stretching, transverse stretching and heat setting. The resulting film was prepared to have a thickness of 4.5 microns.
2. Preparation of the adhesive layer
Pretreatment: the PP base film is put into a mixed solution of Sodium Dodecyl Sulfate (SDS), fatty acid methyl ester sodium sulfonate (MES) and fatty alcohol polyoxyethylene ether (AEO) with the mass ratio of 3:1:2, and is washed clean by pure water and dried.

3. Preparation of composite current collector
The prepared PP base film with enhanced performance is placed in a magnetron sputtering cabin body, a metal layer with the thickness is formed by sputtering, after the metal layer is formed by the magnetron sputtering, the metal layers on two sides are respectively deposited on two surfaces of the PP base film by an aqueous medium electroplating method, and a composite current collector with the thickness of about 1 mu m is formed. Secondly, preparing a protective layer: the prepared composite current collector forms a stable oxide film through a benzotriazole antioxidant, and finally is dried at 100 ℃.
Testing and evaluation:
the purpose of the treatment of the PP base film is to improve the surface adhesion performance and mechanical performance of the film, and further improve the performance of the composite current collector prepared by taking the PP base film as a base material, wherein the factors influencing the surface adhesion performance of the PP base film, namely, the surface tension and the indexes such as the adhesion force between the PP base film and a surface metal layer in the composite current collector are tested and characterized, and in addition, the tensile strength of the prepared PP base film is tested, and the specific test method is as follows:
(1) surface tension: the surface tension of the PP base film prepared as described above was tested according to GB/T14216-2008.
(2) Binding force of PP base film and metal layer in composite current collector: a layer of Permacel P-94 double faced adhesive tape is adhered to an aluminum foil with the thickness of 1mm, a composite current collector is adhered to the upper side of the double faced adhesive tape, an ethylene acrylic acid copolymer film (DuPont Nurcel0903, the thickness is 50 μm) is covered on the composite current collector, and then the aluminum foil is hot-pressed for 10s at the temperature of 1.3X105N/m < 2 >, the aluminum foil is cooled to room temperature, and small strips with the thickness of 150mm multiplied by 15mm are cut. And finally, fixing the ethylene acrylic acid copolymer film of the sample strip on an upper clamp of a tensile machine, fixing the rest part of the ethylene acrylic acid copolymer film on a lower clamp, peeling the ethylene acrylic acid copolymer film and the lower clamp at an angle of 180 degrees and a speed of 100mm/min after the ethylene acrylic acid copolymer film and the lower clamp are fixed, and testing the peeling force, namely the bonding force of the PP base film and the metal layer.
Table: the examples and comparative examples are surface tension of polypropylene film and adhesion of composite current collector
Note that: the elastic modulus, tensile strength and elongation at break of the polypropylene film and the composite current collector are all indexes in the MD direction (i.e. machine direction, direction of the film roll after being unwound).
In the above table, from examples 1-4, it can be seen that: in the concentration of the chlorinated polypropylene (namely 5-10 per mill), the concentration of the chlorinated polypropylene is improved, and the adhesive property of the polypropylene film and the composite current collector is improved; when the concentration of the chlorinated polypropylene is beyond 10 per mill, the adhesive property of the polypropylene film and the composite current collector is obviously reduced.
From examples 2 and 5-7, it can be seen that: the adhesion performance of the polypropylene film and the composite current collector is better within the treatment time of 60-300 s.
From examples 5 and 8-9, it can be seen that: in the baking temperature of 80-120 ℃, the baking temperature is increased, and the adhesive property of the polypropylene film and the composite current collector is slightly reduced after the improvement.
As can be seen from comparative examples 2 and 3, when the content of the chlorinated polypropylene exceeds 5-10 per mill, and the soaking time exceeds 60-300 s, the surface tension of the polypropylene film and the binding power of the composite current collector are reduced instead, which is unfavorable for improving the mechanical properties of the composite current collector, namely, the binding power of the composite current collector is enhanced when the content of the chlorinated polypropylene is 5-10 per mill and the soaking time is 60-300 s, the mechanical properties of the composite current collector are obviously improved, and the PP base film and the metal layer are not easy to fall off.
Comparative example 1 was obtained without providing a tie layer, i.e., without treatment with a surfactant, an organic treatment agent, a first treatment agent and a second treatment agent, and comparative example 4 was obtained with treatment with a surfactant, an organic treatment agent and a first treatment agent, but without treatment with a second treatment agent, and comparative example 4 was compared with comparative example 1 in terms of the effect of surface elevation of the polypropylene film in comparative example 4. The tension and the adhesion force of the composite current collector are both larger than those of comparative example 1, but the improvement effect of the surfactant, the organic treating agent and the first treating agent is smaller, the surface tension of the polypropylene film is only increased from 22mN/m to 23mN/m, the adhesion force of the composite current collector is only increased from 1.3N/cm to 1.5N/cm, and the adhesion force of the composite current collector is only slightly improved. Comparative example 4 in comparison with example 1, the surface tension of the polypropylene film treated by the second treating agent in example 1 is increased from 23mN/m of comparative example to 26mN/m in example 1, and the adhesion of the composite current collector is increased from 1.5N/cm to 1.8N/cm, i.e. the surface tension of the polypropylene film is obviously improved by the second treating agent, the adhesion of the composite current collector is obviously enhanced, and the mechanical property of the composite current collector is obviously improved.
In a word, the tie coat that the upper and lower both sides of PP basic film set up can be very big improvement polypropylene film surface tension and compound electric current collector adhesion, and solvent in the tie coat can expand and diffuse to the PP basic film surface, strengthen the mechanical linkage power with the PP basic film surface to strengthen the bonding performance of PP basic film and metal level, the compound electric current collector adhesion of this preparation strengthens, and the mechanical properties of compound electric current collector obviously promotes, and PP basic film and metal level are difficult for droing. The second treating agent has a decisive effect on improving the binding capacity of the PP base film and the metal layer, and organic solvents such as toluene, xylene and the like are introduced in the process of synthesizing the second treating agent, and are diffused into the PP base film to swell molecules in the PP base film and mutually diffuse and wind to generate good adhesive force; the adhesive force caused by the dispersive force between the non-polar backbone of the second treating agent and the non-polar polyolefin substrate; when the second treating agent is equal to the crystal structure and size of the PP base film 1, one polymer crystal can be epitaxially grown on the other polymer crystal to form good adhesion.
While the foregoing is directed to the preferred embodiments of the present invention, it will be appreciated by those skilled in the art that various modifications and adaptations can be made without departing from the principles of the present invention, and such modifications and adaptations are intended to be comprehended within the scope of the present invention.
