| 20110146064 | Battery Manufacturing Using Laminated Assemblies - A microporous battery separator may be laminated to electrodes and manipulated through manufacturing on a continuous roll of material. Batteries may be constructed by layering the laminated electrodes and separator into various configurations, including flat and wound cell batteries. The separator may or may not contain a nonwoven or other reinforcement, and may be laminated to the electrodes using several different methods. | 06-23-2011 |
| 20100247894 | Reinforced Highly Microporous Polymers - The present invention provides microporous polymers and methods for producing and using the same. In particular, microporous polymers of the present invention are highly porous as indicated by a Gurley air permeability flow rate of about 4 seconds or less per mL of air flow per 25 micron of microporous polymer thickness per square inch. | 09-30-2010 |
| 20100183907 | Hard Spacers in Microporous Membrane Matrix - A battery separator may be formed with hard spacers made from ceramic and other high temperature materials. The spacers may be incorporated into a microporous membrane so that the microporous matrix may capture and hold the spacers. The spacers may be solid or hollow glass beads that are in the range of 30% to 100% of the thickness of the separator, and may comprise less than 10 weight percent. The resulting membrane may be largely microporous, and the separators may help battery electrodes to remain physically separated, even after internal temperatures exceed the melt temperature of the separator. | 07-22-2010 |
| 20100178567 | Mat Forming Spacers in Microporous Membrane Matrix - A microporous polymer used as a battery separator may be formed with hard, insoluble dielectric spacer materials in fibrous or particulate form. The spacer materials may form a barrier when the battery separator may melt or be crushed during an over-temperature event, possibly preventing a fire. The spacer materials may be located within the polymer matrix and may be added to a solution used to form the microporous polymer. | 07-15-2010 |
| 20090208832 | Lamination Configurations for Battery Applications Using PVDF Highly Porous Film - A porous material manufactured Polyvinylidene Difluoride, or PVDF may be used in several configurations as a separator material for Lithium Ion and other types of batteries. The PVDF separator may be used with electrodes manufactured from a PVDF substrate for various lamination techniques in various configurations. The PVDF separator may be used in several configurations to enable more active material into a given battery construction, ensure better adhesion between layers, and overall increase the performance and capacity of a battery. | 08-20-2009 |
