The electrolyte bridges the positive and negative electrodes by forming an ion-conductive channel between them. As one essential component of the rechargeable batteries, the main function of the separator is to separate the positive and negative electrodes, restrict the free pass of electrons and prevent short-circuit of the battery.
After absorbing the electrolyte, the separator is easily separated due to swelling, thereby affecting the performance of the battery. Besides, the composite separator is usually very thick, and shows higher internal resistance, which also affects the ionic conductivity and the discharge capacity of the battery [49, 100, 101]. 3.2.3.
The separator prepared by the wet method can effectively inhibit the occurrence of lithium dendrites on the graphite anode during the charge process due to the curvature of the pores and the interpenetrated microporous structure, and thus is more suitable for the battery with long cycle life.
According to the patent, the separator has microporous regions of PE and PP. On heating in an oven, the impedance of the separator increases near the melting point of PE and the impedance remains high until beyond the melting point of PP. However, battery performance data have not been presented.
The separator is a critical component of lithium-ion batteries since it provides a physical barrier between the positive and negative electrodes in order to prevent electrical short circuits. The separator also serves as the electrolyte reservoir for the transport of ions during the charging and discharging cycles of a battery.
As one essential component of the rechargeable batteries, the main function of the separator is to separate the positive and negative electrodes, restrict the free pass of electrons and prevent short-circuit of the battery. At the meantime, it allows the metal ions in the electrolyte to migrate freely between the electrodes [21, 22].
