Abstract in another language
A new type of high-temperature stable and self-supporting composite separator for lithium-ion batteries is developed consisting of custom-made ultrathin micrometer-sized glass platelets embedded in a glass fiber nonwoven together with a water-based sodium-alginate binder. The physical and electrochemical properties are investigated and compared to commercial polymer-based separators. Full-cell configuration cycling tests at different current rates are performed using graphite and Lithium iron phosphate as electrode materials. The glass separator is high-temperature tested and shows a stability up to at least 600 °C without significant shrinking. Furthermore, it shows an exceptional wettability for non-aqueous electrolytes. The electrochemical performance is excellent compared to commercially available polymer-based separators. The results clearly show that glass platelets, integrated in a glass fiber nonwoven perform remarkably as a separator material in lithium-ion batteries and show a high temperature stability.
