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.
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.
Lithium-ion battery separators are materials used in lithium-ion batteries to prevent the positive and negative electrodes from coming into direct contact. They 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.
Despite the advances that have been made in the development of separator materials, there are still several challenges that currently exist. These challenges are primarily due to new and emerging applications of Li-ion batteries. Among the existing challenges of the separator, the main ones are: 1. Wettability of the Separator
At present, polyolefin microporous membranes, such as polyethylene (PE) and polypropylene (PP), are the most widely used separators. The low melting point of polyolefins (135 °C for PE and 165 °C for PP) leads to poor thermal stability of separators, seriously affecting the safety of 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. Many efforts have been devoted to developing new types of battery separators by tailoring the separator chemistry.
