Abstract:
PVDF/PAN/SiO2 polymer electrolyte membranes based on non-woven fabrics were prepared via introducing a chemical reaction into Loeb-Sourirajan (L-S) phase inversion process. It was found that physical properties (porosity, electrolyte uptake and ionic conductivity) and electrochemical properties were obviously improved. A favorable membrane structure with fully connective porous and uniform pore size distribution was obtained. The effects of PVDF/PAN weight ratio on the morphology, crystallinity, porosity, and electrochemical performances of membranes were studied. The optimized PVDF/PAN (70/30 w/w) (designated as M-pc30) polymer electrolyte membrane delivered excellent electrolyte uptake of 246.8 % and the highest ionic conductivity of 3.32 x 10(-3) S/cm with electrochemical stability up to 5.0 V (vs. Li/Li+). In terms of cell performance, the Li/M-pc30 polymer electrolyte/LiFePO4 battery exhibited satisfactory electrochemical properties including high discharge capacity of 149 mAh/g at 0.2 C rate and good discharge performance at different current densities. The promising results reported here clearly indicated that PVDF/PAN/SiO2 polymer electrolyte membranes prepared by the combination of phase inversion and chemical reaction method were promising enough to be applied in power lithium ion batteries.
