Polyelectrolyte gel

摘要

The present invention comprises a polyelectrolyte gel for use in association with electrochemical devices and systems, as well as a method for forming the polyelectrolyte gel. The polyelectrolyte gel includes a polymer or co-polymer matrix and at least one substantially non-aqueous polar solvent. In a preferred embodiment, the polymer or co-polymer matrix includes at least one monomer having a side chain carrying an alkali metal and at least one monomer having a polar moiety.
