Abstract
Ionically conductive polymers are starting to be recognized as a unique class of electrolytes of great technological potential for applications in many fields. They are presently successfully applied to rechargeable lithium batteries as illustrated by recent published results. The major advantages of film solid state batteries result from the apparent compatibility of polyether complexes with all chemical reactants of the battery. Mechanical strength associated with flexibility of the electrolyte allow good cycling properties. Good energy and power densities are projected and partially demonstrated for warm batteries; at room temperature low to moderate power appear possible.
