From nanocomposite to nanogel polymer electrolytes

Abstract

This review discusses recent advances in polymer electrolyte nanocomposites. In particular, we highlight our recent understanding on the structure and dynamics at the polymer/nanoparticle interface and attempt to correlate to macroscopic properties. We also discuss our current effort on nanogel electrolytes synthesized by incorporating layered nanoparticles into a gel. The nanogel electrolytes combine the high ambient conductivity of conventional gel electrolytes with the excellent stability toward the metal electrode and the good mechanical properties of nanocomposite electrolytes.
