Abstract

고전압에서도 사용 가능한 바인더 개발에 대한 요구가 증대됨에 따라 이에 적합한 내산화성이 우수한 바인더를 양자화학적 모델링에 기반하여 제안하고자 하였다. 각 고분자 poly(acryl amide)(PAM), poly(methyl acrylate)(PMA), poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF), poly(hexafluropropylene)(PHFP)에 대하여 반경험적 방법(Semi-empirical method) 및 밀도범함수 이론(Density Functional Theory, DFT) 방법을 이용하여 단량체부터 사량체까지의 고분자 바인더에 대한 최고 점유 분자 궤도함수(Highest occupied molecular orbital, HOMO) 에너지와 이온화 에너지(Ionization Potential, IP) 값을 구하여 실험 값과 비교하였다. 밀도범함수 방법으로 해석한 결과, PHFP, PVDF, PMA, PAM 순으로 고분자의 내산화성이 좋은 것으로 시뮬레이션을 통해 예측되었고, 이러한 결과는 선형 훑음 전압-전류법(Linear Sweep Voltametry, LSV)으로부터 얻은 실험값과 일치하였다. 또한 이 결과는 HOMO 오비탈의 구조를 분석하여 내산화성이 좋은 원인을 규명하였다. As the development of available binder in the harsh conditions is needed, we propose the proper binder for high-voltage lithium-ion secondary batteries based on the quantum chemistry modeling. The optimized structures, HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) energies and ionization potentials of 4 binders, which were considered from monomer to tetramer, were investigated by the semi-empirical and DFT (Density Functional Theory) calculations. The results show that the ionization potential values by calculation tend to be close to the oxidation potentials from the measurement of linear sweep voltametry (LSV). The order of oxidative resistance from high value to low value is following: poly(hexafluropropylene), poly(vinylidene fluoride), poly(methyl acrylate) and poly(acryl amide). Also these results correspond with the experimental values. Thus, we find the reason why HOMO (Highest Occupied Molecular Orbital) energy of PHFP has the highest value than other binders by analysis of HOMO orbital structures.
