Single-Ion Conducting Polymer Electrolytes: Synthesis and Characterization

MRS Online Proceedings Library Aims and scope

Abstract

Two classes of alkali metal single-ion conducting polymer electrolytes have been characterized and their conductivities examined. Both polymers are sodium ion conductors. The first class is based upon a tetra(alkoxy)-aluminate counterion incorporated into a polyether network, and the second has a sulfonate counterion covalently bonded to a phosphazene backbone. The temperature dependent and concentration dependent conductivities of these polymers are contrasted. Phosphazene polymers that are anion conductors are also discussed.
