IONIC GELLING AGENT, GEL, PROCESS FOR PRODUCTION OF GEL, AND CROSSLINKING AGENT

摘要

The purpose of the present invention is to provide: a gel which can overcome the disadvantages of conventional techniques, has high electrical conductivity, and does not cause the corrosion of a metal part of an electrochemical device or the like which is in contact with the gel; a gelling agent which can be used for the production of the gel; a gel production process which can produce the gel readily; and a crosslinking agent which can be used in the production of the gel. A gel produced using a gelling agent that comprises a specific crosslinking agent and a polymeric compound having an atom capable of forming an onium salt is found, whereby the purpose can be achieved.
