His research involves fundamental and applied studies on solid-state Li-ion battery systems, specifically targeting the safety and efficiency of next generation batteries. His research also includes work on battery separators (liquid electrolyte-based batteries) and modeling of polymer nanocomposites using Dissipative Particle Dynamics (DPD) simulations.
The mechanical strength and thermal stability of the separator are the basic guarantees of lithium batteries’ safety. At the same time, the separator’s high porosity and electrolyte wettability are necessary conditions for the high electrochemical performance of lithium batteries . Fig. 1.

As one of the essential components of batteries (Fig. 1 a), the separator has the key function of physical separation of anode and cathode and promotes the transmission of ionic charge carriers between electrodes . The mechanical strength and thermal stability of the separator are the basic guarantees of lithium batteries’ safety.
Although the separator is not involved in the electrochemical reaction of lithium ion batteries, it plays the roles of isolating the cathode/anode and uptaking the electrolyte for Li + ions transport, and therefore directly affects the safety and electrochemical properties of lithium ion batteries.
An often-overlooked aspect of materials development for batteries is the separator. The main purpose of the separator is to prevent electrical and physical contact between the electrodes while its porous structure allows an electrolyte (typically liquid) to transport ions. Conventionally, the separator is therefore a passive component.
It is crucial to obtain an in-depth understanding of the design, preparation/ modification, and characterization of the separator because structural modifications of the separator can effectively modulate the ion diffusion and dendrite growth, thereby optimizing the electrochemical performance and high safety of the battery.
Huang et al. designed a multi-layer structural separator to prevent the “shuttle effect” of soluble polysulfides, and therefore extended the cycling life of battery [ 34 ].
