Separators

Yuping Wu, Shiyong Zhao, and Teunis van Ree

In batteries, separators are used to avoid short circuit between negative and positive electrodes. They are therefore generally regarded to be conductors not of electrons but of ions. Some separators for batteries and their properties are shown in Table 12.1 [1].
