Abstract:
Provided is a separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices that includes an improved porous epoxy resin membrane. At least one compound selected from a carboxylic acid, a carboxylic acid salt, a carboxylic acid anhydride, and a carboxylic acid halide, is brought into contact with a porous epoxy resin membrane, and thus hydroxyl groups contained in the porous membrane are reacted with the compound to produce carboxylic acid ester bonds. As a result of this treatment, the amount of active hydroxyl groups present in the porous epoxy resin membrane is reduced, and the porous epoxy resin membrane becomes suitable as a separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices. An epoxy resin sheet yet to be made porous may be subjected to reaction with the compound.
Abstract:
The present invention provides a method for producing a separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices. The method allows: avoidance of use of a solvent that places a large load on the environment; relatively easy control of parameters such as the porosity and the pore diameter; and a relatively high strength of a resultant separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices. The present invention relates to a method for producing a separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices that has a thickness ranging from 5 to 50 µm. The method includes the steps of: preparing an epoxy resin composition containing a glycidylamine-type epoxy resin, a curing agent, and a porogen; forming a cured product of the epoxy resin composition into a sheet shape or curing a sheet-shaped formed body of the epoxy resin composition, so as to obtain an epoxy resin sheet; and removing the porogen from the epoxy resin sheet by means of a halogen-free solvent.

Abstract:
Provided is a separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices that includes an improved porous epoxy resin membrane. In the separator for nonaqueous electrolyte electricity storage devices, a ratio I/Io between a peak intensity Io of an absorption peak present at 1240 cm -1 in an infrared absorption spectrum of the porous epoxy resin membrane and a peak intensity I of an absorption peak present at 1240 cm -1 in an infrared absorption spectrum of the porous epoxy resin membrane having been subjected to an acetic anhydride treatment is 1.0 or more and 2.4 or less. The amount of active hydroxyl groups present in the porous epoxy resin membrane can be evaluated by the value of the ratio I/Io.
