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.
Lithium-ion battery separators 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.
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.
The characteristics, advantages, and limitations of these separators are discussed. A brief outlook for the future directions of the research in the separators is also provided. Abstract Li-ion and Li–S batteries find enormous applications in different fields, such as electric vehicles and portable electronics.
The use of oxide coatings in modified separator batteries (such as Sn 2 O) will form a mixed modified layer of lithium–metal alloy and Li 2 O in situ with the lithium anode during the electrochemical cycle. Li 2 O can act as a good conductor of ion transfer, and Li 3 N has a higher ionic conductivity than lithium oxide.
Although separator is an inactive element of a battery, characteristics of separators such as porosity, pore size, mechanical strength, and thermal stability influence the ion transport, cycle life, performance, and safety of the batteries . Thus, the separator represents one of the key components in LIBs.
