Electrospun Polyvinylidene Difluoride Membranes for High-Performance Application in Lithium Ion Batteries

Abstract

Electrolytes play a crucial role in the development of an efficient batteries. There are different techniques for the fabrication of such polymer electrolytes that are essential since polymer membrane depends on it. A versatile and simple technique or the preparation of such matrix is electrospinning. Polymeric fibres of non-woven membrane offer high ionic conductivity as well as good cycling performance. Electrospun PVdF attained greater attention due to its higher dielectric constant, chemical stability as well as thermal stabilities. Morphology, cycling performance, electrochemical stabilities, etc., were investigated for the improved performance of lithium ion battery. Electrospun polymer blends as well composite polymer electrolytes are promising candidates that are suitable for lithium ion batteries. © 2021, Springer Nature Singapore Pte Ltd.
