Fast Li-ion conduction in poly(ethylene carbonate)-based electrolytes and composites filled with TiO2 nanoparticles†
Abstract
We have found remarkable ion-conductive properties in a novel polymer electrolyte composed of poly(ethylene carbonate) and Li bis-(fluorosulfonyl) imide. The self-diffusion coefficient of Li-ions exceeded 10−7 cm2 s−1 and the Li transference number was estimated to be more than 0.8 in composites filled with only 1 wt% of TiO2 nanoparticles.
