3D Printable Polymer Electrolytes for Ionic Conduction based on Protic Ionic Liquids

Year: 2024
Type: article
Abstract: A range of protic ionic liquids (PILs) based on tri‐n‐alkylammonium cations and mesylate/triflate anions were incorporated into a polymer matrix to form ionogels (IGs). These systems were investigated for their thermal and electrochemical behaviour, as well as under the aspect of ion motion via PFG‐NMR. The ionic conductivities of the ILs/IGs are in the range of 10−4–10−3 S/cm−1 at elevated temperatures and the diffusion coefficients are around 10−11 m2 s−1. Successful 3D printing of an IG with 70 wt % of IL is possible via stereolithography approaches, opening up applications in, e. g., structured ion‐conductive membranes.
