Effect of Chemical Structure and Salt Concentration on the Crystallization and Ionic Conductivity of Aliphatic Polyethers
(MDPI, 2019-03-09)
Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) is the most widely used polymer in the field of solid polymer electrolytes for batteries. It is well known that the crystallinity of polymer electrolytes strongly affects the ionic conductivity ...
Opportunities for organocatalysis in polymer synthesis via step-growth methods
(Elservier, 2019-03-14)
Organocatalysis has emerged as an invaluable tool for polymer synthesis and has already demonstrated versatility for replacing organometallic catalysts in many polymerization reactions. The overall ease of removal and lower ...
Chemical Structure Drives Memory Effects in the Crystallization of Homopolymers
(ACS, 2020-06-11)
Although the study of melt memory has attracted much interest, the effect of polymer chemical structure on its origin has not been fully elucidated. In this work, we study melt memory effects by Differential Scanning ...
Flame Retardant Polyphosphoester Copolymers as Solid Polymer Electrolyte for Lithium Batteries
(RSC, 2021-05-19)
Solid-state lithium batteries are considered one of the most promising battery systems due to their high volumetric energy density and safety. Poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) is the most commonly used solid polymer electrolyte ...
