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.
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 failure of the separator in the battery may lead to short circuit, overheating or even fire and explosion of the battery, which poses a threat to the safety of equipment and personnel. The fundamental physical reason for the failure of the battery is the transfer of electrons between the cathode and anode.
The separator has become a bottleneck restricting the safety and performance of rechargeable batteries. Developing suitable separators will be critical to the future development of the rechargeable batteries.
At present, researches on separators still focus on the improvement performance of the dendrite growth, ion transport, mechanical properties and wettability. Functional separators are also key to improving the electrochemical performance of batteries.
The separator is one of the key components that directly affects battery performance. The mechanical properties and chemical stability of commercial separators are excellent, but the performance of wettability and compatibility is insufficient for use in sodium ion battery systems.
