All solid-state polymer electrolytes for high-performance lithium ion batteries

Abstract All solid-state polymer electrolytes have been received a huge amount of attention in high-performance lithium ion batteries (LIBs) due to their unique characteristics, such as no leakage, low flammability, excellent processability, good flexibility, wide electrochemical stability window, high safety and superior thermal stability. In this review, we summarized a series of all solid-state polymer electrolytes based on modified poly (ethylene oxide), polycarbonate, polysiloxane, succinonitrile and organic-inorganic hybrid composite. The recent progress on all solid-state polymer electrolytes has been reviewed in term of their potential application in LIBs. It is expected that the high-performance solid-state polymer electrolytes can be used in portable electrochemical devices, electric vehicles and grid energy storage.
