Electrochemical Preparation of Polymer Electrodes.
Abstract
Polymer electrolytes formed by the chemical and electrochemical polymerization of a solution of LiASF6 in dioxolane have been examined. The liquid electcrolyte has been stabilized by preparing and storing it in the presence of Li Metal as a proton and carbocation scavenger. The initial results show that the polymerization of the electrolyte is readily initiated chemically by acids or oxidizing agents. The polymerization continues so that over 24 hrs at room temperature the conductivity of the resulting polymer electrolyte decreases to near .000001 S/cm. Subsequent work involved the prparation of free standing films and TIS2 electrodes containing the polymer electrolyte. Lithium/tiS2 cells were constructed and evaluated at room temperature and 60 C.
