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.
According to the requirements of the United States Advanced Battery Consortium (USABC) for lithium-ion battery separators, the specifications of separators immersed in liquid electrolyte are >300 g/25.4 μm puncture strength and <2% offset at 1000 psi tensile strength.
Development of an Advanced Microporous Separator for Lithium Ion Batteries Used in Vehicle Applications (United States Advanced Battery Consortium, 2018). Xu, H., Zhu, M., Marcicki, J. & Yang, X. G. Mechanical modeling of battery separator based on microstructure image analysis and stochastic characterization. J. Power Sources 345, 137–145 (2017).
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.
Therefore, the two safety guarantee properties of the composite separator greatly enhance the safety and service life of the battery, which allows the application of lithium batteries to be further improved in the application scenario and application scale.
Innovation in separator technology — guided by experimental characterization, simulation and analysis — is needed to ensure that separators evolve with lithium-ion technology that is placing new demands on separators and electrolytes 13, 88.
