Room-temperature molten salt polymers as a matrix for fast ion conduction

摘要

Vinyl polymers having either imidazolium group or sulfonamide group in the side chain were prepared as components to form a molten salt. After mixing, these polymers formed a molten-salt-like flexible domain in the polymer, and excellent ionic conductivity (7.52 x 10(-6) Scm(-1) and 1.88 x 10(-4) Scm(-1) at 30 degrees C, respectively) was observed in spite of their rubber-or powder-like properties.
