- W4220767723 abstract "Mixed electron- and ion-conducting polymers serve as excellent candidates for polymer binders in lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) because of an extension of functionality beyond simple mechanical adhesion. Such dual conduction was observed in our recent report on dihexyl-substituted poly(3,4-propylenedioxythiophene) (PProDOT-Hx2), which showed excellent performance as a cathode binder for LiNi0.8Co0.15Al0.05O2 (NCA). However, ionic conductivity was found to be significantly lower than that of its electronic counterpart. To enhance mixed conduction, here we report a family of synthetically tunable, electrochemically stable, random copolymers based on PProDOT-Hx2, in which the hexyl (Hex) side chains are replaced to varying extents with oligoether (OE) side chains, generating a series of (Hex:OE) PProDOTs. When OE content was varied from 5 to 35%, the resulting copolymers were insoluble in the battery electrolyte and were stable after 100 electrochemical doping/dedoping cycles. Electron paramagnetic resonance and electrochemical kinetics studies were performed to illustrate the reversible and fast electrochemical doping process of (Hex:OE) PProDOTs. Electronic and ionic conductivity measurements as a function of electrochemical potential show a decrease in electronic conductivity and a concurrent increase in ionic conductivity with increasing incorporation of OE side chains. X-ray scattering studies on electrochemically doped polymers indicate a decline in crystalline ordering with the increase in OE content of the (Hex:OE) PProDOTs, suggesting that decreasing crystallinity is responsible for both the increased ionic and reduced electronic conductivity. Compounding these structural changes, swelling studies show a linear mass increase with OE content upon electrolyte exposure, indicating that solvent-induced swelling and electrolyte uptake play a significant role in the ability of these polymers to conduct ions. Finally, rigorous cell testing was performed by employing electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, galvanostatic charge–discharge, rate capability tests, and differential capacity vs voltage analysis, using NCA cathodes to understand the role of these polymers as mixed electron- and Li+-ion-conducting polymer binders in LIBs in comparison to the commonly used polyvinylidene fluoride. It is observed that (75:25) PProDOT containing 25% of OE side chains achieves the highest rate capability and fastest charging and discharging under symmetric testing conditions. The synthetic flexibility to fine-tune electronic and ionic conductivity makes (Hex:OE) PProDOTs a promising new class of mixed conducting polymers for electrochemical energy-storage application." @default.
