Conductivity of Medium Lithium Salts of Calix[n]arene Sulfonic Acids Plasticized with Propylene Carbonate
摘要
Abstract
It was discovered earlier that the calix[n]arene sulfonic acids have a record high proton conductivity, so that it was suggested that lithium salts of calix[n]arene sulfonic acids plasticized with aprotic solvents should also have ionic conductivity. It was found that the medium salt of calix[n]arene sulfonic acid in combination with propylene carbonate as a plasticizer has an ionic conductivity of 10–1–10–2 mS/cm, which makes it a promising material for further study and use as an electrolyte for lithium-ion batteries.
