Abstract
The present disclosure relates to a system for determining the shut-down temperature and melt-down temperature of a separator. The system includes a jig having a through-hole, a heating unit, a temperature sensor, a controlling unit and an air permeability-determining unit. In this manner, it is possible to provide a novel system for determining the shut-down temperature and melt-down temperature of a separator by using the air permeability (Gurly value) of the separator.
Claims11
A system for determining shut-down temperature and melt-down temperature of a separator, comprising:
- an air permeability-determining unit determining air permeability (Gurley value) of the separator;
- a first jig arranged on one side of the separator and having a first through-hole through which air discharged from the air permeability-determining unit is introduced;
- a second jig arranged on other side of the separator which is an opposite surface of the one side of the separator, and having a second through-hole through which air passing through the first through-hole and pores in the separator is introduced;
- a heating unit heating the first jig and the second jig;
- a temperature sensor measuring temperature of the first jig or the second jig;
- and
- a controlling unit controlling the heating unit and the temperature sensor,
- wherein the controlling unit calculates the shut-down temperature and the melt-down temperature of the separator by using the temperature measured by the temperature sensor as a function of time and the air permeability (Gurley value) of the separator determined by the air permeability-determining unit,
- the heating unit is included in the first jig and the second jig,
- the heating unit comprises a hot wire, and
- the hot wire is installed on the other surface where the first jig or the second jig is in contact with the separator.
