Thus, battery separators are evaluated taking into account the material composition and morphology (wettability, permeability, microstructure), mechanical (tensile strength, shrinkage), thermal (shutdown and high-temperature melt integrity) and electrical properties (ionic conductivity and chemical stability).
The battery temperature rise decreases with separator thickness because less active electrode materials were packed in the battery canister when the separator becomes thicker. The heat in a battery is primarily generated by battery cathode and anode [157], which dominates the temperature rise of LIB operation.

This paper discusses the various design features of a battery separator and describes how such features may be used to effect the performance and life of the traction battery. Separator porosity, material composition, backweb thickness, rib dimensions and the use of attached glass mats are some of the controlled variables.
Nitrides, oxides, carbons, etc., can be employed as surface-coating materials for manufacturing surface-modified separators. A few research groups have demonstrated the effect of a nitride layer comprising either BN or AlN on managing the localized heat generated inside the cell and homogenizing Li + flux (Figure 3 b–d) [21, 42, …
Separator requirements. An ideal separator should have an infinite electronic but a zero ionic resistance. In practice, the electrical resistivity of the polymers used for separators is in the order of 10 12 –10 14 Ω cm, i.e., they are electrical insulators. In the meantime, a low internal ionic resistance is especially important for HEV/EV …
