Separator is an essential component in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs), which greatly affects the electrochemical performance of the battery. Poor electrochemical performances of commercial lithium-ion battery separators limit their use in electric vehicles and energy storage systems.
Poor electrochemical performances of commercial lithium-ion battery separators limit their use in electric vehicles and energy storage systems. The poor electrochemical performance arises from the low porosity, high thermal shrinkage, and poor thermal stability of poly olefin-based separators.
The small amount of current that may pass through the separator is self-discharge and this is present in all batteries to varying degrees. Self-discharge eventually depletes the charge of a battery during prolonged storage. Figure 1 illustrates the building block of a lithium-ion cell with the separator and ion flow between the electrodes.
Converting the chemically inert separators into functional membranes could be an effective way to alleviate these issues. The separators can function more in lithium-ion batteries via the rational design of polymer structure. In this sense, the separator should henceforth be considered as a functional membrane in lithium-ion batteries.
Li-ion battery separators may be layered, ceramic based, or multifunctional. Layered polyolefins are common, stable, inexpensive, and safe (thermal shutdown). Ceramic oxides reduce shrinkage and particle penetration and improve wetting. Chemically active multifunctional separators may trap, attract, or dispense ions.
Inorganic polymer separators have also been of interest as use in lithium-ion batteries. Inorganic particulate film/ poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) /inorganic particulate film trilayer separators are prepared by dip-coating inorganic particle layers on both sides of PMMA thin films.
