The purpose of this study is to research and develop solid polymer electrolyte(SPE) for Li secondary battery. This paper describes the effects of lithium salts, plasticizer addition and temperature dependence of conductivity of PEO electrolytes. Polyethylene oxide(PEO) based polymer electrolyte films were prepared by solution casting an acetonitrile solution of preweighed PEO and Li salt. After solvent evaporation, the electrolyte films were vacuum-dried at $60^{\circ}C$ for 48h, the thickness of the films were $90{\sim}110{\mu}m$. The conductivity properties of prepared PEO electrolytes are summarized as follows. PEO electrolyte complexed with $LiClO_4$ shows the better conductivity of the others. $PEO-LiClO_4$ electrolyte when $EO/Li^+$ ratio is 8, showed the best conductivity. Optimum operating temperature of PEO electrolyte is $60^{\circ}C$. By adding propylene carbonate and ethylene carbonate to $PEO-LiClO_4$ electrolyte, its conductivity was higher than $PEO-LiClO_4$ without those. Also $PEO_8LiClO_4$ electrolyte remains static up to 4.5V vs. $Li/Li^+$.

As the separator becomes thinner, the role of thermal stability becomes more important in ensuring the high capacity of medium- and large-sized lithium-ion secondary batteries. In this study, we researched coating technology to improve the separator's thermal stability. We minimized the coating time by optimizing the design of a vertical two-stage coater that was thin, uniform, and capable of coating on both sides at the same time with a maximum 2㎛ thickness coating layer of fluorinated polymer (PVdF-HFP) on the bare polyethylene (PE) separator, which increased the thermal stability. In addition, during the coating process, a dual-jacket-roll method of drying was developed that increased the drying effectiveness without thermal damage to the separator. We also investigated the thermal stability of the separator manufactured from a coating machine, and studied the battery-applied performance by making a lithium-ion pouch battery.

In lithium-ion batteries, separator membrane's, main role is to physically isolate a cathode and an anode while maintaining rapid transport of ionic charge carriers during the passage of electric current. As far as battery safety is concerned, the electrical isolation of electrodes is most crucial since unexpected short-circuits across the membrane induces hot spots where thermal runaway may break out. Internal short-circuits are generally believed to occur by protrusions on the electrode surface either by unavoidable deposits of metallic impurities or by dendritic lithium growth during battery operation. Another cause is shrinkage of the separator membrane when exposed to heat. If separator membrane can be engineered to prevent the internal short-circuit, it will not be difficult to improve lithium-ion batteries' safety. Commonly the separators employed in lithium-ion batteries are made of polyethylene (PE) and/or polypropylene (PP). These materials have terrible limitations in preventing the fore-mentioned internal short-circuit between electrodes due to their poor dimensional stability and mechanical strength. In this study we have developed a novel separator membrane that possesses very high thermal and mechanical stability. The cells employing this separator provided noticeable safety improvement in the various abuse tests.

There is ongoing research to develop lithium ion batteries as sustainable energy sources. Because of safety problems, solid state batteries, where electrolytes are replaced with solids, are attracting attention. Sulfide electrolytes, with a high ion conductivity of 10^-3 S/cm or more, have the highest potential performance, but the price of the main materials is high. This study investigated lithium hydride materials, which offer economic advantages and low density. To analyze the change in ion conductivity in polymer electrolyte composites, PVDF, a representative polymer substance was used at a certain mass ratio. XRD, SEM, and BET were performed for metallurgical analyses of the materials, and ion conductivity was calculated through the EIS method. In addition, thermal conductivity was measured to analyze thermal stability, which is a major parameter of lithium ion batteries. As a result, the ion conductivity of LiH was found to be 10^-6 S/cm, and the ion conductivity further decreased as the PVDF ratio increased when the composite was formed.

We have prepared siloxane polymers grafted with trifluoromethane-sulfonylamide and oligoether side chains for solid polymer electrolytes with enhanced ionic conductivity. The grafted trifluoromethane sulfonylamide groups seem to be effective as an anion recepting site to enhance the ionic conductivity of the solid polymer electrolyte. The anion receptor grafted siloxane polymers showed one order of magnitude higher ionic conductivity than the siloxane polymers without anion receptor grafts. The fitting parameter A of the VTF plot which was related to the carrier density of the electrolyte increased with increasing the number of grafted anion receptor. The results of experiment indicate that the anion-complexing site of the anion receptor grafted polymer host effectively traps the anions. The anion receptor grafted polymer was found to be a promising material for lithium polymer batteries.

리튬계열 전지는 다른 이차전지에 비해 평균전압 및 에너지 밀도가 높으며 가볍고 수명이 긴 장점으로 인해 휴대용 전자기기에 폭넓게 사용되고 있으며, 특히 전기 자동차용으로 높은 수요가 예측되고 있다. 전기 자동차용 리튬 전지의 경우 운행 가능 거리의 정확한 계산이 요구되며, 또한 크랭킹이 불가능한 상태로 방전이 되지 않아야 하므로 충전상태에 대한 정확한 정보는 신뢰성 있는 운전을 위한 필수적인 요소가 된다. 본 논문에서는 AC 임피던스를 이용하여 리튬 폴리머 전지의 충전상태(SOC: State of Charge)를 추정하는 새로운 방법에 관해 제안한다. 제안된 방법에서는 주파수 별로 측정된 임피던스를 등가 임피던스 모델에 커브 피팅하여 파라미터를 추출하고, 추출된 파라미터를 이용하여 충전상태를 추정하였다. 제안된 방법에 의해 추출된 파라미터를 통해 리튬전지의 SOC 추정이 가능함을 증명하였고, 다수의 제조사에서 제작된 비슷한 용량의 리튬 폴리머 전지를 대상으로 한 실험을 통해 제안된 방법의 유용함을 검증하였다.

본 연구에서는 리튬이차전지용 상용 분리막에 전자선을 조사하여 가교구조를 지닌 내열성이 향상된 분리막을 제조하였고 조사선량에 의한 열적, 기계적 특성들을 평가하였다. 전자선 조사된 분리막의 열수축률은 조사선량이 증가할수록 감소하였고 AC impedance를 이용한 shutdown거동 연구 결과 전자선 조사를 하지 않은 분리막보다 우수한 shutdown 특성을 갖는 것으로 확인하였다. 또한, 전자선 조사선량이 증가할수록 분리막의 모듈러스는 향상되는 반면 인장강도와 파단 연신율은 감소됨이 관찰되었다.

분자량이 큰 Poly(ethylene oxide)[PEO] 고분자에 $LiClO_4$, $LiCF_3SO_3$ 등의 리튬염과 ethylene carbonate(EC), propylene carbonate(PC) 등의 가소제를 고정화시킨 고분자 전해질의 전기화학적 특성 및 물리적 성질을 조사하였다. 가소제가 첨가된 PEO-Li계 고분자 전해질은 상온에서 $10^{-4}S/cm$의 이온 전도도를 보였고 4.5 V(vs. $Li^+/Li$)까지 높은 전기화학적인 안정성을 나타냄으로써 리튬 2차전지에 적용 가능한 것으로 나타났다. 리튬염 및 가소제의 첨가에 따라 PEO의 결정상이 감소되었고 특히 $LiClO_4$, PC등이 $LiCF_3SO_3$, EC 등에 비하여 더 효과적인 것으로 나타났다. 리튬염의 농도가 증가할수록 고분자 전해질의 유리전이온도($T_g$)는 증가되었으며 반면에 융점온도($T_m$)는 감소하는 것으로 나타났다. 가소제가 첨가된 고분자 전해질은 $6^{\circ}C$에서 결정화 되었다.

본 연구에서는 동종의 thiophene계 고분자를 전극과 전해질 재료로 적용하여 고체 전해질과 전극이 맞닿은 계면 저항을 감소시킨 고분자 전지를 제작하였다. 먼저 poly(3,4-ethylenedioxy thiophene) (PEDOT) 기반 전극과의 계면 저항을 최소화하기 위해 3,4-ethylenedioxy thiophene (EDOT) 올리고머[oligo(EDOT)]를 고체 전해질에 도입하고, oligo(EDOT)의 부족한 리튬 염 해리능력을 향상시키기 위해서 poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVdF)와 블렌딩한 oligo(EDOT)/PVdF 블렌드 기반 고체 전해질을 제작하였다. 그 결과, oligo(EDOT)에 PVdF를 도입함으로써 고체 고분자 전해질의 이온 전도도는 증가하였다. 또 PEDOT 기반 전극과 oligo(EDOT)/PVdF 블렌드 기반 고체 전해질로 이루어진 전 고체 고분자 전지의 전기화학적 특성을 평가한 결과, 동종의 thiophene계 고분자 물질을 전극과 전해질에 도입함으로써 계면 저항이 크게 감소함을 확인하였다.
