A highly uniform, heterogeneous-phase composite separator is synthesized by a direct post-solidation process from the mixture of nano-SiO 2 /acetone monodisperse suspension and poly(vinylidene fluoride- co -hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF- co -HFP)/acetone gel, without any organic surfactants. This technique leads to the PVDF- co -HFP/SiO 2 composite separator outstanding microstructural uniformity. The incorporation of SiO 2 nanoparticles leads to reduced crystallinity (≈27%), enhanced wettability (≈14%), improved electrolyte uptake (≈420%), and enhanced mechanical strength (>14 MPa) of the composite separator. These enhanced properties of the separator translate into remarkable LiFePO 4 /Li battery performance with reduced polarization, a high room-temperature capacity of 165 mAh g −1 at 0.5 C, a high thermal dimensional stability (≈4.5% shrinkage after annealing at 160 °C for 1 h) and 5.2% capacity degradation after 1500 charge/discharge cycles at 2 C.
