Title: Transport properties of the solid polymer electrolyte system P(EO){sub n}LiTFSI

Abstract

Values for the lithium ion transference number ({tau}{sub +}{sup 0}) are reported for the solid polymer electrolyte system poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) complexed with Li(CF{sub 3}SO{sub 2}){sub 2}N (LiTFSI). {tau}{sub +}{sup 0} ranges from 0.17 {+-} 0.17 to 0.60 {+-} 0.03 in the salt concentration (c) region of 742 to 2,982 mol/m{sup 3} at 85 C. The concentration dependence of {tau}{sub +}{sup 0} and the molar ionic conductivity ({Lambda}) are shown to be in good agreement with a free volume approach over the salt-rich composition range investigated. The present {tau}{sub +}{sup 0} results were obtained using an electrochemical technique based on concentrated solution theory. This experimentally straightforward method is herein demonstrated to give accurate results for a highly concentrated SPE system, without relying on any dubious simplifications regarding the state of the electrolyte.
