Room-Temperature-Cured Copolymers for Lithium Battery Gel Electrolytes

{ntb_intro_text}Polyimide-PEO copolymers with branched rod-coil molecular structures, that can be cured into film form at room temperature, have been invented for use as gel electrolytes for lithium-ion electric- power cells. These copolymers offer an alternative to previously patented branched rod-coil polyimides, and an advantage in room-temperature functionality.{/ntb_intro_text}
