主 题:Janus separator molecular sieve redistribution lithium metal anode deposition
摘 要:During operation of a lithium metal battery,uneven lithium deposition often results in the growth of lithium dendrites and causes a rapid decay in battery performance and even leads to safety *** is still the main hurdle hindering the practical application of lithium metal *** report a new type of Janus separator fabricated by introducing a molecular sieve coating on the surface of the polypropylene separator that serves as a redistribution layer for lithium *** results show that using this layer,the growth of lithium dendrites can be largely inhibited and the battery performance greatly *** a typical Li||Cu half-cell with the Janus separator,the Coulombic efficiency of the lithium metal anode can be maintained at98.5%for over 500 *** cycling life span is also extended by a factor of 8 in the Li||Li symmetric ***,the high-strength coating improves the mechanical properties of the separator,thus enhancing *** effectiveness of our strategy is demonstrated by both the inhibited growth of lithium dendrites and the improved battery *** methodology could eventually be generalized for electrode protection in other battery systems.
