Abstract

Official abstract text for this publication.

Provided is a layered double hydroxide (LDH) separator capable of more effectively restraining short circuiting caused by zinc dendrites. The LDH separator includes a porous substrate made of a polymer material and LDH plugging pores in the porous substrate, and has a linear transmittance of 1% or more at a wavelength of 1000 nm.

First claim

Opening claim text (preview).

What is claimed is: 1. A layered double hydroxide (LDH) separator comprising a porous substrate made of a polymer material and LDH plugging pores of the porous substrate, said separator having a linear transmittance of 5% or more at a wavelength of 1000 nm, wherein the porous substrate is filled with the LDH over the full thickness of the porous substrate, the thickness being taken along a cross section of the porous substrate. 2. The LDH separator according to claim 1 , having a linear transmittance of 10% or more at a wavelength of 1000 nm. 3. The LDH separator according to claim 1 , having a helium permeability per unit area of 3.0 cm/atm·min or less. 4. The LDH separator according to claim 1 , having an ionic conductivity of 0.1 mS/cm or more. 5. The LDH separator according to claim 1 , wherein the polymer material is selected from the group consisting of polystyrene, poly(ether sulfone), polypropylene, epoxy resin, poly(phenylene sulfide), fluorocarbon resin, cellulose, nylon, and polyethylene. 6. The LDH separator according to claim 1 , consisting of the porous substrate and the LDH. 7. A secondary zinc battery comprising the LDH separator according to claim 1 .
