Traditional polyolefin separators showed low thermal stability, poor wettability toward the electrolyte, and inadequate barrier properties to polysulfides. To improve the performance and durability of Li-ion and Li–S batteries, development of advanced separators is required.
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.
Nonwoven separators including cellulose (NKK), PET (Mitsubishi), aramid (Freudenberg), and polyolefin separators including PP (Celgard) and PP/PP (Celgard) were investigated for high-power lithium-ion batteries. The surface morphologies of the separators were observed by a field emission scanning electron microscopy (SU1510, Hitachi).
