Network-type ionic conductors based on oligoethyleneoxy-functionalized pentamethylcyclopentasiloxanes
Network-type solid polymer electrolytes (NSPEs) were synthesized containing oligoethylene oxide chains, CH3(OCH2CH2)(3)(CH2)(3)-, within the network structures. Hydrosilylation reactions of precursors 1 and 2 (oligoethyleneoxy partially substituted pentamethylccyclopentasiloxanes (D-5(H))) with an alpha,omega-diallyloligo(ethylene glycol) were employed for the formation of the cross-linked networks. The conductivities of the network polymer/LiX complexes with variable EO/Li ratios were measured by impedance experiments. NSPE-2, with 36.0% cross-linking density, exhibited higher conductivity than NSPE-1, with 43.8%. The optimum conductivity (sigma = 9.24 x 10(-5) S/cm at 25 degrees C, 2.11 x 10(-4) S/cm at 37 degrees C) was found for NSPE-2 with lithium bis(oxalato)borate (LiBOB). LiBOB-doped polymers exhibited higher conductivity than those doped with LiTFSI at the same salt concentration.
