Abstract: | ![]() Novel hyperbranched polymer, poly[bis(diethylene glycol)benzoate] capped with a 3,5-bis[(3′,6′,9′-trioxodecyl)oxy]benzoyl group (poly-Bz1a), was prepared, and its polymer electrolyte with LiN(CF3SO2)2, poly-Bz1a/LiN(CF3SO2)2 electrolyte, was all evaluated in thermal properties, ionic conductivity, and electrochemical stability window. The poly-Bz1a/LiN(CF3SO2)2 electrolyte exhibited higher ionic conductivity compared with a polymer electrolyte based on poly[bis(diethylene glycol)benzoate] capped with an acetyl group (poly-Ac1a), and the ionic conductivity of poly-Bz1a/LiN(CF3SO2)2 electrolyte was to be 7×10−4 S cm−1 at 80 °C and 1×10−6 S cm−1 at 30 °C, respectively. The existence of a 3,5-bis[(3′,6′,9′-trioxodecyl)oxy]benzoyl group as a branching unit present at ends in the base polymer improved significantly ionic conductivity of the hyperbranched polymer electrolytes. The polymer electrolyte exhibited the electrochemical stability window of 4.2 V at 70 °C and was stable until 300 °C. |
