After 500 cycles of the test, the amount of the eluted transition metal on the cathode surface was measured.
- the by-products that were not adsorbed by the functional inorganic particles of the second layer often did not reach the cathode surface as they passed through the plate-shaped inorganic layer, which is the first layer, and thus, it was confirmed that the amount of transition metal elution was significantly reduced at the cathode surface of the electrochemical device that had deteriorated after 500 cycles of discharge. With the same effect, the improved performance maintenance rate of the electrochemical device and the reduced amount of gas generation were also confirmed.
- Comparative Example 1 is a self-supporting ceramic separator composed only of second inorganic particles capable of adsorbing by-products generated during the degradation of an electrochemical device, and shows a result in which the amount of transition metal elution from the cathode surface of the degraded electrochemical device is reduced compared to a general separator after 500 cycles of discharge.
- Comparative Example 2 is a separator composed only of plate-shaped inorganic particles, which are the first inorganic particles, and it is expected that the assembly of denser inorganic particles will make the path of transition metal ions complicated and the by-products accumulating on the cathode surface will be reduced, but the level is inferior to that of Comparative Example 1.
- a self-supporting ceramic separator for an electrochemical device includes a functional inorganic substance and a plate-shaped inorganic substance, thereby preventing gas adsorption and accumulation of byproducts on the cathode surface during deterioration of the electrochemical device, and thus improving the performance of the electrochemical device can be expected.
