Abstract

In this work, we report a new method to enforce the comprehensive performances of gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) for lithium ion battery. Poly(methyl methacrylate-acrylonitrile-vinyl acetate) [P(MMA-AN-VAc)] is synthesized as polymer matrix. The physical and electrochemical performances of the matrix and the corresponding GPEs, doped with nano-SiO2 and nano-ZrO2 particles individually or simultaneously, are investigated by scanning electron microscopy, thermogravimetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, and charge/discharge test. It is found that the membrane co-doped with 5 wt.% nano-SiO2 + 5 wt.% nano-ZrO2 and the corresponding GPE combine the advantages of those doped individually with 10 wt.% nano-SiO2 or 10 wt.% nano-ZrO2. Accordingly, the comprehensive performances of the membrane and the corresponding GPE, in terms of thermal stability, ionic conductivity, and electrochemical stability on the anode and cathode of lithium ion battery, is enforced by co-doping 5 wt.% nano-SiO2 and 5 wt.% nano-ZrO2.
