The effect of polyacrylic Acid (PAA) binder molecular weight on the performance of alumina-coated polyolefin separator for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs)
LIBs have been widely used for electronics and electric vehicles (EVs). Apart from the electrochemically active electrodes, separator also plays an important role in the battery performance. Due to the low electrolyte uptake and low thermal stability of commercial polyolefin membrane separators, cer...
