Performance testing
The lithium ion battery separator prepared in example 1, a commercially available Ceglard2325 separator on the market, and a PVDF-only nanofiber membrane (the PVDF nanofiber membrane was prepared according to the same method as in example 1) were respectively subjected to performance tests.
The lithium ion battery separator structure prepared in embodiment 1 is shown in fig. 1, and includes a first polyvinylidene fluoride film layer 1, a polyethylene microsphere layer 2, and a second polyvinylidene fluoride film layer 3, which are sequentially disposed, at this time, the polyethylene microsphere layer 2 has pore channels respectively communicated with the microporous structures of the first polyvinylidene fluoride film layer 1 and the second polyvinylidene fluoride film layer 3, and the lithium ion battery separator can conduct lithium ions;

The thermal dimensional shrinkage of Celgard2325 reaches 57.2%, the thermal dimensional shrinkage of the PVDF nanofiber membrane is 8.3%, and the thermal dimensional shrinkage of the lithium ion battery separator prepared in example 1 is 11.0%, which indicates that the lithium ion battery separator prepared in example 1 has good thermal dimensional stability, and particularly after hot-melt polyethylene microspheres are added on the PVDF nanofiber membrane, the thermal dimensional shrinkage is slightly affected, and the use requirements are met.
Fig. 4 is a scanning electron microscope image of a cross section of the lithium ion battery separator prepared in example 1 after being heat-treated at 110 ℃. The figure shows that the clear three-layer structure has a clear boundary line, and after the polyethylene microspheres in the middle layer are melted, the polyethylene in the middle layer can permeate into the polyvinylidene fluoride film layers on the upper layer and the lower layer, so that the microporous structure of the fiber film can be completely blocked.
And assembling the button full-cell according to the sequence of the positive electrode shell/the positive electrode/the diaphragm/the negative electrode/the steel sheet/the elastic sheet/the negative electrode shell, wherein the positive electrode material is ternary nickel-cobalt-manganese (NCM523), and the negative electrode material is a graphite negative electrode.
Fig. 5 shows the change of the open circuit voltage of the battery assembled by the lithium ion battery separator prepared in example 1 during the heating process, and it can be seen that the open circuit voltage of the battery is maintained at about 3.15V at room temperature, the battery is placed in a constant temperature heating device at 110 ℃, the voltage of the battery drops to a certain extent, and then suddenly drops to 0 within a period of about 16s at a certain stage. This indicates that the lithium ion battery separator prepared in example 1 can rapidly respond thermally during the operation of the battery. When the temperature inside the battery suddenly rises to the melting temperature of the polyethylene microspheres, the polyethylene microsphere layer of the lithium ion battery separator prepared in example 1 can be melted rapidly to block the microporous structure of the fibrous membrane rapidly, so that the effect of preventing lithium ion transmission is achieved, and the voltage is rapidly reduced to 0.

however, when the battery was discharged at 110 ℃, the discharge capacity of the battery decreased to 0.03mAh/g, and normal discharge was not possible. This is because when the temperature inside the battery reaches 110 ℃, the polyethylene microspheres of the polyethylene microsphere layer rapidly melt and form a dense layer, so that the original pores of the separator fail. This indicates that the lithium ion battery separator of the present invention can effectively shut down the reaction of the battery at 110 ℃.
In addition, the porosity and the liquid absorption rate of the lithium ion battery separator prepared in the example 1 are tested, and the result shows that: it has a high porosity of 68.8% and a high liquid uptake of 484%.
