What is a battery separator?

The battery separator is one of the most essential components that highly affect the electrochemical stability and performance in lithium-ion batteries. In order to keep up with a nationwide trend and needs in the battery society, the role of battery separators starts to change from passive to active.

Why do we need a lithium battery separator?

Separator, a vital component in LIBs, impacts the electrochemical properties and safety of the battery without association with electrochemical reactions. The development of innovative separators to overcome these countered bottlenecks of LIBs is necessitated to rationally design more sustainable and reliable energy storage systems.

What are lithium-ion battery separators?

Lithium-ion battery separators are receiving increased consideration from the scientific community. Single-layer and multilayer separators are well-established technologies, and the materials used span from polyolefins to blends and composites of fluorinated polymers.

Can a multifunctional separator be used in a Li-ion battery separator?

Multifunctional separators offer new possibilities to the incorporation of ceramics into Li-ion battery separators. SiO 2 chemically grafted on a PE separator improves the adhesion strength, thermal stability (<5% shrinkage at 120 °C for 30 min), and electrolyte wettability as compared with the physical SiO 2 coating on a PE separator .

Why is a battery separator important?

The major role of the battery separator is to physically isolate the anode from the cathode while allowing mobile Li-ions to transport back and forth . Unfortunately, two technical challenges associated with separator puncture and significant thermal shrinkage of polymer separators threaten the overall safety of batteries.

What is the thermal shrinkage of a Lithium Ion Separator?

Thermal shrinkage A separator with low melting temperature tends to melt and shrink, which causes pore blockage and eventually terminates the ion transport between the electrodes . Thus, a separator with a shrinkage of <5% for 60 min at 200 °C has typically been desirable for LIBs .
