The present review attempts to summarize the knowledge about some selected membranes in lithium ion batteries. Based on the type of electrolyte used, literature concerning ceramic-glass and polymer solid ion conductors, microporous filter type separators and polymer gel based membranes is reviewed. 1. Introduction
As the vital roles such as electrodes, interlayers, separators, and electrolytes in the battery systems, regulating the membrane porous structures and selecting appropriate membrane materials are significant for realizing high energy density, excellent rate capability, and long cycling stability of lithium rechargeable batteries (LRBs).
More importantly, the asymmetric porous structured membrane with a dense layer can act as an active material and current collector, avoiding the use of separate current collectors, even conductive agents and binders in lithium-ion battery, which is beneficial for superior electrochemical performances in terms of high reversible capacity.

Preparation of high performance nanofiltration membranes with excellent pH-resistance remains a challenge.
An overview and analysis of the state of the art on lithium ion battery separators is presented for the different separator types, including microporous membranes, nonwoven membranes, electrospun membranes, membranes with external surface modification, composite membranes and polymer blends.
In summary, several polymers have been applied in lithium batteries. Starting from commercial PP/PE separators, a myriad of possible membranes has been published. Most publications focus on increasing the ionic conductivity and the lithium-ion transference number.
