Optimization and Scale-Up Performance of Polymer Electrolyte Batteries.

Abstract

The rechargeable high energy density polymer electrolyte battery utilizing a lithium anode, polyethylene oxide-salt complex electrolyte and a V6O13 composite cathode has been investigated in this laboratory. Cycled tests indicate good adhesion at the anode/electrolyte and electrolyte/cathode interfaces, even after one-hundred deep cycles. A modified polymer electrolyte with relatively higher room temperature ionic conductivity has also been employed in cells at ambient temperature. Scaled-up designs are under evaluation.
