PEO-MEEP

The conductivity of gelled electrolytes is determined primarily by the liquid and salt components. High liquid content, of the order of 40 percent, is required to attain conductivities comparable with those of the corresponding liquid electrolyte. At these liquid loading levels there is often insufficient mechanical strength, and although this effect may not be noticeable on 1-2 cm2 laboratory cells, it is certainly evident on scale-up [111]. Polymer blends such as PEO-MEEP are much more mechanically stable than MEEP itself and more conductive than PEO but there is little overall improvement of the room tern-...
