Abstract

Rechargeable lithium-ion polymer batteries have been considered to be next-generation power sources for portable electronic devices and electric vehicles. In this work, we tried to improve the cycling performances of lithium-ion polymer cells by coating aluminum fluoride and acrylonitrile-methyl methacrylate copolymer to the polyethylene separator. It was found that the addition of aluminum fluoride to the surface-modified separator reduced the interfacial resistances and thus the cell exhibited a less capacity fading and better high rate performance. The cell showed an initial discharge capacity of 150 mAh/g and good capacity retention at 0.5 C rate.

리튬이온폴리머전지는 휴대용 전자기기와 전기자동차 등의 차세대 동력원으로 주목을 받고 있다. 본 연구에서는 폴리에틸렌 분리막에 소량의 부기 화합물과 고분자를 코팅하여 제조된 표면 개질 분리막을 리튬이온폴리머전지에 적용함으로써 전지 특성을 향상시키고자 하였다. 불화 알루미늄과 아크릴로니트릴-메틸 메타크릴레이트 공중합체를 폴리에틸렌 지지체에 코팅하여 얻어진 표면 개질 분리막을 이용하여 제조된 리튬이온폴리머전지는 충 방전 싸이클 과정 중에 균일한 전도성 고체 전해질 계면이 전극 표면에 형성되어 낮은 계면 저항값을 보였으며, 이에 따라 불화 알루미늄을 포함하고 있지 않는 리튬이온폴리머전지와 비교하여 싸이클 특성과 고율 방전 특성이 크게 향상되었다. 표면 개질된 분리막을 이용하여 제조된 리튬이온폴리머전지를 0.5 C rate로 충 방전한 결과, 초기 방전용량 150 mAh/g을 나타내었으며, 300싸이클에서 133 mAh/g의 방전 용량을 유지하여 우수한 용량 보존특성을 나타내었다.
