  • Aaron Coyner, Senior Capstone Seminar The use of solid polymers in lithium ion batteries has the potential to provide a safer, more reliable alternative to liquid electrolytes.

    - Welcome1:10 pm - The Synthesis of a Solid Polymer Electrolyte Aaron Coyner, Senior Capstone Seminar The use of solid polymers in lithium ion batteries has the potential to provide a safer, more reliable alternative to liquid electrolytes. The synthesis of a solid polymer electrolyte based off of an oxanorbornene maleimide repeat unit with an oligomeric ethylene oxide unit will be presented. Our research group has already experimented with ethylene oxide unit lengths of n=2, 3, and 4. This research
