Ambient Temperature Solid Polymer Electrolyte Devices

Abstract

A variety of new materials for ambient temperature polymer electrolyte batteries are under investigation. These materials include some derivatives of polyether complexes with plasticizer salts. Phase diagrams, X-ray diffraction, nuclear magnetic resonance, electro-chemical stability and ion transport studies have been carried out, to fully evaluate these materials. Prototype electrochemical cells based on these polymer electrolytes have been subjected to extended cycling at various temperatures in order to assess the performance efficiencies as well as changes within the cell structure. Keywords: Polymer electrolyte, Solid state battery, Plasticizer.
