Abstract:
The present invention relates to a rechargeable electrochemical cell comprising (a) at least one cathode (a) comprising at least one electroactive sulfur-containing material, (b) at least one anode (b) comprising at least one alkali metal, (c) at least one electrolyte composition (c) comprising (c1) at least one solvent (c1), and (c2) at least one alkali metal salt (c2), and (d) at least one alkali-ion conducting separator assembly (d) comprising (A) a continuous matrix (A) of at least one polymer, and (B) particles (B) of an alkali-ion conducting material, which are embedded in the continuous matrix (A), wherein at least 50 % of the embedded particles (B) penetrate both sides of the continuous matrix (A) and are uncovered by matrix (A). The present invention further relates to a device comprising such a rechargeable electrochemical cell.
Abstract:
The present invention relates to an alkali-ion conducting separator assembly comprising as a first component (A) a continuous matrix (A) of at least one polymer, and as a second component (B) particles (B) of an alkali-ion conducting material, which are embedded in the continuous matrix (A), wherein at least 50 % of the embedded particles (B) penetrate both sides of the continuous matrix (A) and are uncovered by matrix (A). The present invention further relates to a process for producing such an alkali-ion conducting separator assembly and to an electrochemical cell comprising such an alkali-ion conducting separator assembly.
