Abstract
This invention relates to novel battery separators comprising ceramic nanowires, more specifically, inorganic carbonate nanowires. The novel ceramic nanowire separators are suited for use in lithium batteries, such as lithium ion rechargeable, lithium metal rechargeable and lithium sulfur rechargeable batteries, and provide high safety, high power density, and long cycle life to the fabricated rechargeable batteries. The battery separators comprise ceramic nanowires that may be optionally bonded together by organic polymer binders and/or may further comprise organic nanofibers.
Claims22
A battery separator comprising dihydroxyaluminum sodium carbonate nanowires.
A nanowire slurry comprising dihydroxyaluminum sodium carbonate nanowires and water, wherein the nanowires are prepared by a hydrothermal growth process and processed by a three-roll mill milling.
