Abstract Commercial lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) use polyolefins as separators. This has led to increased research on separators composed of renewable materials such as cellulose and its derivatives. In this study, the ionic conductivity of cellulose acetate (CA) polymer electrolyte membranes was enhanced via plasticization with citric acid and succinonitrile. The primary objective of this study was to evaluate the effectiveness of these plasticizers in improving cellulose-based separator membranes in LIBs. CA membranes were fabricated using solution casting technique and then plasticized with various concentrations of plasticizers. The structural, thermal, and electrochemical properties of the resulting membranes… More >
