Abstract

The invention discloses a composite separator for a lithium battery. The composite separator is applicable to a lithium ion battery or a metal lithium battery. The composite separator is formed by combining a substrate layer and an inorganic lithium ion conductor layer, wherein the inorganic lithium ion conductor layer employs an inorganic lithium ion conductor material with lithium ion conductivity larger than 1.0*10<-8>S cm<-1> under a temperature of 20-120 DEG C, the inorganic lithium ion conductor material exists in the substrate layer in a form of one or more of particle, cylinder, pipe and line, the substrate layer provides a basic separator framework, lithium ions can be induced to be uniformly deposited by the lithium ion conductor layer, and the mechanical property and the thermalstability of the separator are improved. The composite separator is simple in preparation method, lithium dendrites growth caused by non-uniform lithium ion distribution can be effectively suppressed, and the cycle efficiency and the safety of the battery within a wide temperature range are greatly improved; and by matching a high-capacity positive / negative electrode material, the cycle lifetimeof the lithium battery can be prolonged, the energy density and the safety of the lithium battery can be improved, and the industrial process is promoted.

Description
