TL;DR: The conductivity of PEO/Li + -montmorillonite nanocomposite containing 40 wt% PEO is 1.6x10 -6 S/cm at 30°C and exhibits a weak temperature dependence with an activation energy of 2.8 kcal/mol.

TL;DR: In this paper, the ionic conductivity and lithium electrode-electrolyte interfacial stability have been measured for composite polymer electrolytes using micrometer-and nanometer-size alumina (Al2O3) with polyethylene oxide (PEO) and lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4).

TL;DR: In this paper, a review of the literature about the importance of surface film on Li/non-aqueous liquid and solid polymer electrolyte interfaces is presented, and the experimental results and reviewed literature support that both the surface films on lithium and the electron-transfer reaction are equally important interfacial phenomena, and should be considered simultaneously during an investigation.

TL;DR: The Coin Cell Battery Imager as mentioned in this paper was used to record wideline 7 Li NMR spectra of the lithium ions that were electrochemically intercalated into three different types of carbon-based materials.

TL;DR: In this article, an alternative approach based on the addition to the PEO-LiX blend of an anion-trapping supermolecular component was reported, and the polymer electrolytes with unity values of t Li+ but still maintaining a true solid configuration combined with appreciable conductivity have been obtained.
