Construction and electrochemical performances of environment-friendly polymer electrolyte membrane via interpenetrating network technology
Environmental-friendly polymer electrolyte membrane(M-ABAA)was prepared from emulsion polymerization of butyl acrylate(BA),acrylonitrile(AN)and acrylic acid(AA)with 2-acrylamide-2-methylpropanesulfonic acid(AMPS)as reactive emulsifier via interpenetrating network technology,and characterized by FTIR,XPS,SEM,TEM and TG.The electrochemical performance of CR2032 battery with M-ABAA as electrolyte membrane was evaluated by CV,EIS and charge and discharge tests.The results showed that the M-ABAA(M2)prepared with m(AMPS)∶m(BA)∶m(AA)∶m(AN)of 1∶3∶2∶2 exhibited an ionic conductivity of 0.98 mS/cm,mechanical strength of 7.53 MPa,elongation break of 90.4%,electrolyte uptake of 150%,and thermal shrinkage of 4%.Meanwhile,the M2 showed good compatibility and universality with the current mainstream anode and cathode materials(LiCoO2,LiMn2O4,LiFePO4,NCM811)used in lithium-ion batteries.With M2 as electrolyte separator,lithium metal as anode electrode,LiCoO2 and graphite as cathode electrode,the initial discharge specific capacities were 141.3 and 347.1 mA·h/g,respectively,and the capacity retention rates after 100 cycles were 94.8%and 85.0%,respectively.At 2.0 C rate,the corresponding specific discharge capacities were 119.8 and 239.0 mA·h/g,respectively.
