Disclosed are a copolymerized PVDF resin for lithium battery binders and its preparation method. 300 to 600 parts of deionized water, 0.04 to 0.25 part of a pH buffer regulator, 85 to 99.5 parts of a vinylidene fluoride (VDF) monomer, 0.5 to 15 parts of a comonomer, 0.3 to 3 parts of a metallocene synergist, 0.2 to 1.0 part of an initiator, 0.08 to 0.35 part of a dispersant react at 40 to 65° C., 5.5-8.0 Mpa. At the end of the reaction, the unreacted monomers are recovered, and then the operations of washing, filtering, and drying are carried out to obtain the copolymerized PVDF resin. For the copolymerized PVDF resin for lithium battery binders, the binding of PVDF resin to a positive electrode active material and current collector is improved, and the rotational viscosity of the NMP solution and the preparation and dispersion requirements for PVDF resin slurry are reduced.

The invention relates to polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) copolymer compositions that have improved crosslinking efficiency and performance. The PVDF copolymer contains a high level (>14 and preferably greater than 16 wt %) of a fluorinated comonomer, and has a high molecular weight as measured by the melt viscosity at 230° C. and 100 sec−1 of 18 to 40 kpoise. The composition can be effectively cross-linked with a low level radiation (high cross-linking efficiency). The cross-linked composition is useful in high-temperature applications, such as automotive wire and cable, and heat shrink tubing.
