Clay-Mineral-Coated Separators for Lithium-Ion Batteries: Exploring the Relationships between Clay Mineral Morphology and Separator Performance. [PDF]

Adv Sci (Weinh)
This review examines how coating Li‐ion battery separators with 1D, 2D, and 3D structured natural clay minerals influences their electrochemical and mechanical performance. It classifies 15 types of clay minerals and highlights structure–property correlations to offer practical design strategies for high‐performance separators in next‐generation energy
