Solid polymer electrolyte, method of making, and electrochemical device using the same

摘要

A solid polymer electrolyte is prepared by forming a polymer solution containing a filler into a film, evaporating off the solvent from the film, and impregnating the film with an electrolytic solution. The impregnated polymer electrolyte has a swelling factor of at least 2.2. The method is efficient enough to produce the polymer electrolyte at a low cost. The polymer electrolyte is useful in electrochemical devices such as lithium secondary batteries and electric double layer capacitors.
