[0084] The preparation parameters of all examples and comparative examples are summarized in Table 1.

[0085] Table 1. Process parameters

[0086]

[0087]

[0088] Test Method

[0089] The thermal shrinkage rate is measured by high-temperature baking. The specific test conditions are a temperature of 130°C and a test time of 1 hour. TD and MD represent longitudinal thermal shrinkage and transverse thermal shrinkage, respectively. The greater the thermal shrinkage rate, the worse the thermal shrinkage of the diaphragm.

[0090] The peel strength was measured using an electronic universal testing machine. The specific test conditions were an effective length of 200 mm and an effective width of 15 mm.

[0091] The air permeability is measured by a Gurley 4320 permeability meter. The specific test method is the time it takes for 100 mL of gas to pass through the diaphragm. The larger the air permeability increment, the worse the air permeability of the diaphragm.

[0092] The diaphragm is configured with a lithium iron phosphate positive electrode, a lithium metal negative electrode and an ether electrolyte to make a full battery, and the capacity retention rate is recorded after 200 cycles at 1C / 25℃.

[0093] Referring to Table 2, a comparison of Examples 7 to 13 and Comparative Example 1 shows that the addition of functional particles does not degrade thermal shrinkage performance, but does improve capacitance retention after multiple cycles. Furthermore, looking at Examples 1 to 3 as a group, Examples 4 to 6 as a group, and Examples 7 to 9 as a group, it can be seen that the addition of functional particles improves capacitance retention after multiple cycles in a concentration-dependent manner.

[0094] Furthermore, by comparing Example 8 with Comparative Examples 1 and 2, it can be seen that the co-addition of functional particles and heat-resistant particles can synergistically improve the capacitance retention after multiple cycles and reduce the air permeability value (i.e., improve the air permeability performance).
