Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

The present invention pertains to a secondary battery comprising at least one separator, said separator comprising at least one fluorinated polymer [polymer (F)], said polymer (F) comprising recurring units derived from vinylidene fluoride (VDF), hexafluoropropylene (HFP) and at least one (meth)acrylic monomer (MA) having formula (I) here below, wherein: —R 1 , R 2 and R 3 , equal to or different from each other, are independently selected from a hydrogen atom and a C 1 -C 3 hydrocarbon group, and —R OH is a C 1 -C 5 hydrocarbon moiety comprising at least one hydroxyl group.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

The invention claimed is: 1. A secondary battery comprising at least one separator, said separator comprising at least one fluorinated polymer [polymer (F)], said polymer (F) comprising recurring units derived from vinylidene fluoride (VDF), from 1.5% to 3.5% by moles of recurring units derived from hexafluoropropylene (HFP) and from 0.5% to 1.5% by moles of recurring units derived from hydroxyethyl acrylate (HEA) wherein the recurring units derived from vinylidene fluoride (VDF) are the complement to 100% by moles of total recurring units. 2. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , said battery being an alkaline or alkaline-earth secondary battery. 3. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , said battery being a Lithium-ion secondary battery. 4. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer (F) further comprises from 1% to 10% by moles of recurring units derived from at least one other hydrogenated comonomer [comonomer (H)] or at least one other fluorinated comonomer [comonomer (F)] or both. 5. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein polymer (F) comprises recurring units derived from vinylidene fluoride, 2.3% by moles of recurring units derived from hexafluoropropylene and 1.0% by moles of recurring units derived from hydroxyethyl acrylate wherein the recurring units derived from vinylidene fluoride (VDF) are the complement to 100% by moles of total recurring units. 6. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the separator is a porous separator. 7. The secondary battery according to claim 6 , wherein the porous separator is a microporous flat-sheet membrane or a non-woven cloth. 8. The secondary battery according to claim 1 , wherein the separator is a dense separator. 9. The secondary battery according to claim 8 , wherein the dense separator is a polymer electrolyte wherein at least one polymer (F) is swollen by a charge carrying medium.
