After absorbing the electrolyte, the separator is easily separated due to swelling, thereby affecting the performance of the battery. Besides, the composite separator is usually very thick, and shows higher internal resistance, which also affects the ionic conductivity and the discharge capacity of the battery [49, 100, 101]. 3.2.3.
According to the patent, the separator has microporous regions of PE and PP. On heating in an oven, the impedance of the separator increases near the melting point of PE and the impedance remains high until beyond the melting point of PP. However, battery performance data have not been presented.
The separator prepared by the wet method can effectively inhibit the occurrence of lithium dendrites on the graphite anode during the charge process due to the curvature of the pores and the interpenetrated microporous structure, and thus is more suitable for the battery with long cycle life.
Developing suitable separators will be critical to the future development of the rechargeable batteries. The properties of the separators, such as porosity, aperture, wettability, thermal behavior, ionic conductivity, and mechanical strength, decide the performance of the batteries.
