| 20110311881 | LITHIUM SULFONATE POLYAZOLE SOLID POLYMER ELECTROLYTES IN POLYMER ELECTROLYTE LITHIUM ION BATTERIES AND SUPERCAPACITORS, AND PROCESSES OF FABRICATION - The present invention relates to novel and improved solid polymer electrolytes (or ‘gel’ polymer electrolytes) membranes for use in polymer electrolyte battery assemblies, supercapacitors and other applications. The solid polymer electrolytes (SPE) are designed specifically for lithium ion batteries and are generally comprised of a polyazole ring-substituted lithium sulfonates (PARSLS). One or more non-aqueous, PARSLS compatible solvents may be incorporated, and one or more thermally stable ionic liquids, and one or more lithium salts may also be incorporated into the SPE membranes of this invention. The SPE membranes of this invention show uniquely high lithium ion transfer values, high current carrying capacity over a wide temperature range, excellent rechargeability, and good compatibility with anode and cathode materials. These SPE membranes also have very high thermal/chemical stability, are optically clear, and can be made completely nonflammable. | 12-22-2011 |
