Abstract

The invention discloses a novel hydrophobic silica aerogel composite separator for a lithium ion battery. The separator is a hydrophobic silica aerogel coating layer coated on surfaces of conventional separators with different thicknesses, and the thickness of the silica aerogel coating layer is 1-25 micrometers. A preparation method of the hydrophobic silica aerogel composite separator comprises the steps of firstly, preparing hydrophobic silica aerogel; secondly, dispersing the hydrophobic silica aerogel into an organic solvent, and adding a certain proportion of binding agent to prepare paste; and finally, uniformly coating the obtained paste on the surfaces of the conventional separators with different thicknesses, and performing drying to obtain the hydrophobic silica aerogel composite separator. The hydrophobic silica aerogel composite separator has the advantages of light weight and good heat resistance, the silica aerogel of an organic electrolyte with high wettability is used as the coating layer material, and the heat resistance, the wettability and the electrochemical performance of a polyolefin separator are greatly improved on the premise of almost no increase on the mass of the separator.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of lithium ion batteries, and in particular relates to a novel hydrophobic silicon dioxide airgel composite separator for lithium ion batteries and a preparation method thereof. [0002] technical background [0003] Lithium-ion batteries play a pivotal role in everyday life. Whether it is a smartphone or a tablet, a camera or a laptop, lithium-ion batteries are indispensable. In addition, lithium-ion batteries are also the first choice for battery systems used in electric vehicles. To some extent, the success or failure of these mobile products depends largely on the performance of lithium-ion batteries. As an important part of the lithium-ion battery, the performance of the diaphragm affects the capacity, safety performance and cycle performance of the lithium-ion battery, and plays a decisive role in the overall performance of the lithium-ion battery. At present, most commercial lithium-ion battery sepa...
