Transparent, flexible and highly conductive ion gels from ionic liquid compatible cyclic carbonate network.
Transparent, flexible, self-standing and highly ion conductive ion gels have been synthesised from novel ionic liquid compatible cyclic carbonate (CC) network polymer. The use of dual functional cyclic carbonate methacrylate (CCMA) monomer for the synthesis has enabled versatile and operationally simple routes to such type of ion gels.
