AB - INTRODUCTIONBatteries serve as ubiquitous electrochemical and energy storage devices in contemporary society. Among the various types explored, Lithium‐ion Batteries (LIBs) and Sodium‐ion Batteries (SIBs) have emerged to widely accepted technologies. LIBs, in particular, have become integral components in a plethora of electronic devices, including but not limited to cellular phones, laptops, digital cameras, and various other equipment.1–4 LIBs are present in various forms such as round and flat, prism‐shaped, rectangular, cylindrical, and so forth.5 Batteries consist of three crucial components: (1) electrodes, comprising a negatively charged anode and a positively charged cathode, (2) electrolytes, and (3) separators. In the context of LIBs, the separator has a pivotal functioning. The separator is placed between the anode and cathode as a physical barrier. While commercially used separators have traditionally been polyolefin (PO)‐based, recent decades have witnessed a surge in research efforts aimed at environmentally conscious initiatives. Numerous researchers have also made significant contributions to the development of separators for SIBs.3,4,6 The use of cellulosic materials in LIBs has gained attention as an alternative to PO‐based materials. This shift is motivated by the unique properties of cellulosic materials, including biodegradability, renewability, easy accessibility, and low cost.7Cellulose is a prominent, impressive, and remarkable TI - Green power solutions: Advancements in eco‐friendly cellulose‐derived composite battery separators—Material properties and processing techniques JF - SPE Polymers DO - 10.1002/pls2.10147 DA - 2024-10-01 UR - https://www.deepdyve.com/lp/wiley/green-power-solutions-advancements-in-eco-friendly-cellulose-derived-w1it7xtg5M SP - 536 EP - 556 VL - 5 IS - 4 DP - DeepDyve ER -
