Electrospun nanofibers can create a porous mat with well interconnected pores, mechanical strength and high electrochemical stability that can function as a suitable separator for Li-ion batteries. Electrospun nanofiber separators can extend cycle life, reduce internal resistance, improve rate performance, and improve safety. </span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:12pt;">Currently, the pilot production line is producing membrane samples; plans are to expand capacity to 3 million m2 per year in the second half of 2012; to achieve mass production of the new new electrospun nanofiber separator; and complete supporting quality assurance and marketing system.</span></p><p style="margin:0;padding:0px;">&nbsp;</p><p style="margin:0;text-align:justify;"><span style="font-size:12pt;">Source: <a class="jive-link-external-small" href="http://www.greencarcongress.com/2012/05/tipc-cas-commercializing-nanofiber-separator-for-li-ion-batteries.html" rel="nofollow ugc noopener" target="_blank">Green Car Congress</a><br /></span></p><div style="clear:both;"></div> <div style="font-size: 90%;">Tags: electric, li-ion, nanofiber, ev, electric_vehicles, automotive, electric_car, power_efficiency, tipc-cas, lithium_battery, polymer</div>
