Title: Elucidation of Separator Effect on Energy Density of Li-Ion Batteries

Abstract

Fast charging of batteries is the key to increase the adoption of electric vehicles. All the components of a battery: anode, cathode, electrolyte and separator, contribute to the limiting factors of fast charging. While majority efforts are focused on novel electrode architecture and electrolyte formulation for high rate capabilities, studies on separators are mostly pertaining to their mechanical and physical properties and little attention has been paid to their effect on rate performance. In this study, we report a comprehensive analysis of the physical properties, electrochemical performance and high rate capabilities of the widely used battery separator Celgard 2325 and Celgard 2500. It is demonstrated that the Celgard 2500 has better electrolyte wettability and ~2 × in electrolyte uptake, and 2.23 Ω/cm² less in resistance. Consequently, 57% and 47% improvement in capacity is obtained when charged at 2C and 3C, respectively. This indicates that separator can also play an important role in enabling fast charging for lithium-ion batteries.

Electrospun Separator Based on Sulfonated Polyoxadiazole with Outstanding Thermal Stability and Electrochemical Properties for Lithium-Ion Batteries

Journal Article Li, Dazhe ; Wang, Hui ; Luo, Longbo ; ... - ACS Applied Energy Materials

Traditional polyolefin separators used in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) are seriously limited by the issues of inferior security and poor electrolyte wettability. Most of the very promising candidate separators based on heat-resistant polymers are, however, inherently difficult to process. Herein, a unique sulfonated aromatic heterocyclic polymer, lithiated poly(diphenyl ether oxadiazole) sulfonate (Li-SPEOD), was synthesized through a simple one-pot method and further electrospun to act as a novel separator (es-Li-SPEOD) for LIBs. In this work, the prepared Li-SPEOD possesses a high degree of sulfonation with a high molecular weight (M_w = 4.31 × 10⁵). The es-Li-SPEOD separator exhibits excellent mechanical and fire-resistancemore »« less

Mechanical behavior and failure mechanisms of Li-ion battery separators

Journal Article Kalnaus, Sergiy ; Wang, Yanli ; Turner, John A. - Journal of Power Sources

We determine and compare anisotropic mechanical properties for three types of commercially available Li-ion battery separators: Celgard 2325, Celgard PP2075 dry-processed polymer separators, and DreamWeaver Gold 40 non-woven separator. Significant amount of anisotropy of properties was determined, with the Young's modulus being different by up to a factor of 5 and ultimate strength being different by a factor of 10 between orthogonal directions within a polymer separator layer. Strain rate sensitivity was investigated by applying strain rates ranging from 1•10^-4 s^-1 to 0.1 s^-1. Significant strengthening was observed and the strain rate strengthening coefficients were determined for both elastic modulusmore »« less

Highly Loaded Sulfur Cathode, Coated Separator and Gel Electrolyte for High Rate Li-Sulfur Batteries

Technical Report Joo, Yong Lak ; Suntivich, Jin ; Nguyen, Trung

As one of DOE Battery 500 Seedling projects, Cornell University and EIC Labs investigated and developed i) highly loaded sulfur cathodes (> 3 mg/cm²), ii) hybrid separators, and iii) gel ceramic electrolytes (GCE) to mitigate the low rate capability, shuttling effect and limited cycle life in high performance Li-Sulfur batteries. Scalable nanomanufacturing processes such as air-controlled electrospray (ACES) and gas-assisted electrospinning (GAES) have been utilized to develop directly deposited electrodes and polymer/ceramic hybrid separators. First, in the development of highly loaded cathodes, alternating layers of sulfur impregnated mesoporous carbon and graphene were fabricated via ACES and the resulting layered cathodesmore »« less

ALD of Al2O3 for Highly Improved Performance in Li-Ion Batteries

Conference Dillon, A. ; Jung, Y. S. ; Ban, C. ; ...

Significant advances in energy density, rate capability and safety will be required for the implementation of Li-ion batteries in next generation electric vehicles. We have demonstrated atomic layer deposition (ALD) as a promising method to enable superior cycling performance for a vast variety of battery electrodes. The electrodes range from already demonstrated commercial technologies (cycled under extreme conditions) to new materials that could eventually lead to batteries with higher energy densities. For example, an Al2O3 ALD coating with a thickness of ~ 8 A was able to stabilize the cycling of unexplored MoO3 nanoparticle anodes with a high volume expansion.more »« less
Strain distribution and failure mode of polymer separators for Li-ion batteries under biaxial loading

Journal Article Kalnaus, Sergiy ; Kumar, Abhishek ; Wang, Yanli ; ... - Journal of Power Sources

Deformation of polymer separators for Li-ion batteries has been studied under biaxial tension by using a dome test setup. This deformation mode provides characterization of separator strength under more complex loading conditions, closer representing deformation of an electric vehicle battery during crash event, compared to uniaxial tension or compression. Two polymer separators, Celgard 2325 and Celgard 2075 were investigated by deformation with spheres of three different diameters. Strains in separators were measured in situ by using Digital Image Correlation (DIC) technique. The results show consistent rupture of separators along the machine direction coinciding with areas of high strain accumulation. Themore »« less
