| Popis: | Separators are a pivotal component of lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) due to their vital role in maintaining a good ionic flow and preventing internal short circuit. The separators with superior thermal stability, ultrahigh mechanical strength, and excellent electrolyte wettability are essential for ensuring the safety and energy density of LIBs. Herein, an ultrastrong poly(ether ether ketone) (PEEK) separator is fabricated via thermally induced phase separation using a binary diluent for the first time, which maintains the intrinsic outstanding properties of a PEEK resin. Computational simulation and experimental verification are performed to optimize fabrication conditions. The as-prepared PEEK separator with high porosity (70.3%) shows a tortuous and three-dimensional porous structure; furthermore, the abundant polar groups on PEEK endow the separator with excellent electrolyte wettability (contact angle of 19° and electrolyte uptake of 387%). Notably, the PEEK separator exhibits excellent thermal stabili... |
