Abstract

Poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene)-based composite polymer electrolyte (CPE) was prepared by phase inversion technique. In this work, we first applied a novel surface-modified sub-micro-sized alumina, PC-401, as ceramic filler. Various electrochemical methods were applied to investigate the electrochemical properties of the polymer electrolytes. We found that the CPE with 10 wt.% PC-401 has excellent electrochemical properties, including the ionic conductivity as high as 0.89 mS cm−1 and the Li-ion transference number of 0.46. Polymer Li-ion batteries using LiFePO4 as cathode active material exhibited excellent cycling and high-temperature performances. PC-401 shows a promising applicability in the preparation of polymer electrolyte with high electrochemical properties.
