Title: Ion transport on self-assembled block copolymer electrolytes with different side chain chemistries

Journal Article · · Materials Advances
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1039/D2MA00919F · OSTI ID:1909733

Hydrophobic alkyl side chains steer water toward the charge-ion pair, giving rise to large interconnected water clusters that promote ion conduction.
