摘要
A novel ZrO2-reinforced nanofibmus membrane for sodium-ion batteries was synthesized via fabricating a ZrO2 reinforced layer on the surface of the modified cellulose acetate membrane (MCA) by a new and simple in-situ chemical precipitation method. Upon the rational design, the ZrO2-reinforced nanofibmus membranes exhibit high chemical stability and excellent wettability (a decreased contact angle from 26.8 degrees to 7.4 degrees) in electrolytes. Moreover, the ZrO2-reinforced nanofibrous membranes also show no distinct dimensional change after being kept at 250 degrees C for 30 min and high tensile strength up to 1.15 MPa. Compared to that of the MCA membrane (1.61 mS cm(-1)), the ZrO2@MCA-0.5h (immersed in a ZrO(NO3)(2) solution for 0.5 h) exhibits a high ionic conductivity of 2.23 mS cm(-1). Additionally, the cell with the ZrO2@MCA-0.5h displays a high discharge capacity of 224.8 mAh g(-1) at 0.5 C, which are higher than those of the MCA membrane (156.1 mAh g(-1)). Meanwhile, the rate performance of the cells assembled with the ZrO2-reinforced nanofibrous membranes, especially with the ZrO2@MCA-0.5h membrane , are also better than that of the MCA. All the above improvements can be attributed to the presence of the continuous-phase ZrO2 reinforcement layer fabricated on the surface of the MCA membrane, which forms a strong self-adhesive structure among fibers to enhance mechanical strength and has a good affinity for the electrolyte to obtain high ionic conductivity.
