LI+ TRANSFERENCE NUMBER ENHANCEMENT IN POLYMER ELECTROLYTES BY INCORPORATION OF ANION TRAPPING BOROXINE RINGS INTO THE POLYMER HOST

摘要

Polymer electrolytes incorporating boroxine rings with pendant oligoether side chains and a variety of dissolved lithium salts were prepared. High ionic conductivities and Li+ transference numbers were observed, the latter being ascribed to the anion trapping ability of the boroxine ring. [References: 12]
