TABLE 1 physical Properties parameters of the separator in examples 1-6 and comparative examples 1-2
Wherein,,
areal density refers to the mass per unit area of a substance of a certain thickness; the test method is as follows: the wafer with a certain area is punched and placed in an electronic balance for weighing, and the obtained weight/area of the wafer is the area density value;
air permeability refers to the degree to which an object or medium allows gas to pass through; and the air permeability is obtained through testing by an air permeability tester.

(1) Low temperature performance test: at 25 o Standing for 1 hr, discharging 1C constant current to 2.5V, charging 1C constant current to 3.65V, and constant voltage charging to cut-off current of 0.05C, standing for 30min, discharging 1C constant current to 2.5V (25.) o Initial discharge capacity below), standing for 30min, charging to 3.65V with 1C constant current, constant voltage charging to 0.05C cutoff current (immediately setting the temperature of the high-low temperature box to-20 ℃ after completion), standing for 5h, cooling to-20 ℃ of the temperature sensing line on the surface of the battery core, rest for 2h, discharging to 2.0V with 1C constant current, and recording as-20V o Lower discharge capacity; -20 ℃ capacity retention = -20 discharge capacity/25 o Discharge capacity.
(2) And (3) testing the cycle performance: charging the battery to 3.65V at a constant current of 1C, then charging to 0.05C at a constant voltage, standing for 30min, discharging to 2.5V at a constant power of 1C, recording as a charge-discharge cycle, and performing 1000 cycles according to the conditions; capacity retention (%) = (discharge capacity of 1000 th cycle/discharge capacity of first cycle) ×100% after 1000 cycles/3.65V cycle of the battery.
(3) And (3) multiplying power performance test: standing the battery for 30min, charging to 3.65V at a constant current of 1C, charging to 0.05C at a constant voltage, standing for 30min, and discharging to 2.5V at a constant power of 1C, wherein 1C is the initial discharge capacity; as in the 1C test procedure, one charge-discharge cycle was recorded with 2C discharge, and the 2C discharge capacity retention rate=2C discharge capacity/1C discharge capacity.
