The separator, as a key part of the lithium-ion batteries, plays a crucial role in ensuring battery safety as it can insulate the cathode and anode to avoid short-circuiting and it can provide transport paths for lithium ions.. In previous studies, scientists improved the performance of polyolefin separators by coating them with inorganic or organic materials.

In addition to high temperature modification of commercial separators, researchers have also been looking for a high-temperature resistant polymer separators to replace commercial separators. In recent years, an increasing number of high-temperature resistant polymer separator materials have been applied in LIBs by researchers.
To this end, this Review surveyed the state-of-the-art developments of high-temperature-resistant separators for highly safe LIBs with excellent electrochemical performance.
The separators need to maintain the dimensional integrity at high temperature and can shut down to block the pores in case of overheating to guarantee the safety of batteries. The basic requirement for thermal shrinkage is generally less than 5% after 60 min at 100 °C .
However, the ceramic materials have high thermal resistance, which can reduce the heating temperature of the original separator to a certain extent and improve the overall thermal stability of the composite separator. In addition, the thermal stability of the inorganic coating is very strong.
Moreover, the composite separators have high heat resistance, porosity, and high ionic conductivity. Nevertheless, the mechanical properties of the porous composite membranes are relatively lower, which may lead to the deformation or fracture of the separator and subsequently cause a short circuit in the battery.
High porosity provides more channels for lithium-ion transport, and can store more electrolyte, which are beneficial to improve the electrochemical performance of the battery. Therefore, exploring how the preparation of porous separators is the key to improving the performance of LIBs.
