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.
Separators are an essential part of current lithium-ion batteries. Vanessa Wood and co-workers review the properties of separators, discuss their relationship with battery performance and survey the techniques for characterizing separators.
In fact, mechanical, thermal and electrochemical effects occurring in the lithium-ion cell have an ongoing impact on the separator. The separator structure, its chemical composition and the electrolyte composition all impact how a separator will respond to the dynamic processes occurring in a cell.
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.
Thin separators with robust mechanical strength are undoubtedly prime choice to make lithium-based batteries more reliable and safer. Recently, great accomplishments have been achieved for advanced thin separators used in LIBs and a detailed discussion is following in this section. 5.1. Functionalized polyolefin separators
It is crucial to obtain an in-depth understanding of the design, preparation/ modification, and characterization of the separator because structural modifications of the separator can effectively modulate the ion diffusion and dendrite growth, thereby optimizing the electrochemical performance and high safety of the battery.
