Abstract
The left figures show the top-view FE-SEM images of different polymeric separators: (a) U, (b) S1, (c) S2, and (d) S3, which represent the amount of tetraethoxysilane of 0, 1.5, 3.0, and 6.0â¯ml in the colloidal suspension, respectively. The right figures illustrate thermal shrinkage of bare and silica-coated separators, where the separators are subjected to heat treatment at 60-180°C for 10â¯min. It is seen that the silica-coated separators exhibit a reduced thermal shrinkage as compared to bare separator within the entire temperature range. This reveals that the sol-gel deposition of SiO2 nanospheres offers an efficient thermal insulation technique in enhancing thermal resistance of separators.201
