The undesirable phase transformation of zirconium dioxide at high temperatures can be eliminated by stabilization of the cubic phase with an addition of a selected alkaline earth or rare-earth oxide. In this paper the ionic conductivity of cubic solid solutions in the stabilized ZrO$_2$ by CaO-Y$_2$O$_3$ system was examined. The higher ionic conductivity appears to be related to lower activation energy rather than to the number of oxygen vacancies dictated by composition. Those compositions of highest conductivity lie close to the cubic-monoclinic solid-solution phase boundary. Conductivity temperature data are presented that indicate a reversible order-disorder transition for Zr$_2$2-Y$_2$O$_3$cubic solid solutions containing 20 and 25 mole % $Y_2$O$_3$.

In this study, we synthesized and characterized garnet-type Li_7-xAl_xLa₃Zr_2-(5/4)yNbyO₁₂ (LALZN) solid electrolytes for all-solid-state battery applications. Our novel approach focused on enhancing ionic conductivity, which is crucial for battery efficiency. A systematic examination found that co-doping with Al and Nb significantly improved this conductivity. Al³⁺ and Nb⁵⁺ ions were incorporated at Li⁺ and Zr⁴⁺ sites, respectively. This doping resulted in LALZN electrolytes with optimized properties, most notably enhanced ionic conductivity. An optimized mixture with 0.25 mol each of Al and Nb dopants achieved a peak conductivity of 1.32 × 10^-4 S cm^-1. We fabricated symmetric cells using these electrolytes and observed excellent charge-discharge profiles and remarkable cycling longevity, demonstrating the potential for long-term application in battery systems. The garnet-type LALZN solid electrolytes, with their high ionic conductivity and stability, show great potential for enhancing the performance of all-solid-state batteries. This study not only advances the understanding of effective doping strategies but also underscores the practical applicability of the LALZN system in modern energy storage solutions.

Herein, macroporous carbon foams were successfully prepared with phenol and formaldehyde as carbon precursors and an ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium hexafluorophosphate ($BMIPF_6$), as a pore generator by employing a polymerization-induced phase separation method. During the polycondensation reaction of phenol and formaldehyde, $BMIPF_6$ forms a clustered structure which in turn yields macropores upon carbonization. The morphology, pore structure, electrical conductivity of carbon foams were investigated in terms of the amount of the ionic liquid. The as-prepared macroporous carbon foams had around 100-150 ${\mu}m$-sized pores. More importantly, the electrical conductivity of the carbon foams was linearly improved by the addition of $BMIPF_6$. To the best of the author's knowledge, this is the first result reporting the possibility of the use of an ionic liquid to prepare porous carbon materials.

Noble Poly (lithium 2-acrylamido-2-methyl propane sulfonate) and its copolymer with N-vinyl formamide based on trihexyl (tetradecyl) phosphonium acetate [$(C_6H_{13})_3$ P ($C_{14}H_{29}$) $CH_3COO$; $P_{66614}$ $CH_3COO$] and trihexyl (tetradecyl)phosphonium bis(trifluoromethane sulfonyl) amide ([$(C_6H_{13})_3P(C_{14}H_{29})$] [TFSA];$P_{66614}TFSA$) were prepared and analyzed to determine their characteristics and properties. The ionic conductivity of a copolymer based $P_{66614}TFSA$ ionic liquid system exhibits a higher conductivity ($8.9{\times}10^{-5}Scm^{-1}$) than that of a copolymer based $P_{66614}CH_3COO$ system ($1.57{\times}10^{-5}Scm^{-1})$. The charge on the TFSA anion is spread very diffusely through the S-N-S core and particularly in the trifluoromethane groups, and this diffusion results in a decreased interaction between the cation and the anion. The viscosity of $P_{66614}TFSA$ (39 cP at 343 K) and $P_{66614}CH_3COO$ (124 cP at 343 K), which is very hydrophobic, was fairly high. High viscosity leads to a slow rate of diffusion of redox species. The ionic conductivity of copolymer of a phosphonium ionic liquid system also exhibits higher conductivity than that of a homopolymer system. Phosphonium ionic liquids were thermally stable at temperatures up to $400^{\circ}C$.

이온전도도가 높은 상온 이온액을 이용하여 저온, 고온 상분리에 의한 multi-stage phase separation process로 새로운 고정화 이온액 전해질 막(supported ionic liquid electrolyte membranes, SILEMs)을 제조하였다. PVDF와 imidazolium계 이온액을 각각 분리막 소재와 전해액으로 사용하였다. 이온전도도 특성을 알아보기 위해 SILEMs을 LCR meter를 이용 해 $30^{\circ}C$부터 $130^{\circ}C$까지 실험하였다. 가습조건에서 cast Nafion 막의 이온전도도는 $30^{\circ}C$부터 $100^{\circ}C$까지는 직선적으로 증가하였으나 그 이후에는 감소하였다. 그러나 SILEMs의 경우 운전온도의 증가에 따라 이온전도도가 증가하였다. 또한 SILEMs의 이온전도도 거동은 가습과 관계없이 거의 같았다. SILEMs의 이온전도도는 $30^{\circ}C$에서 $2.7{\times}10^{-3}S/cm$이었고 온도가 $130^{\circ}C$까지 증가함에 따라 $2.2{\times}10^{-2}S/cm$까지 거의 직선적으로 증가하였다. $SiO_2$를 이용하여 SILEMs의 물리적 성질에 대한 무기첨가제의 영향에 관하여 연구하였다. SILEMs에 $SiO_2$의 첨가는 비록 약간의 이온전도도 감소는 있으나 SILEMs의 기계적 강도를 향상시킬 수 있었다.

폴리(에틸렌 옥사이드) (PEO)를 기초로 한 전해질의 이온 전도도는 같은 조성인데도 불구하고 보고 된 값은 연구자에 따라 수천 배의 차이가 난다. 한편 세라믹 입자를 충전하면 열적 취급에 따라서 이온전도성이 수천 배 변할 수 있음이 보고되고, 그 원인이 세라믹 입자-PEO 고분자의 상호작용 때문인 것으로 논의되었다. 본 연구에서는 세라믹 입자가 충전되지 않은 PEO$_{10}$LiClO$_4$ 고분자 전해질에 대해서 여러 가지 열적 조건에 따른 이온 전도도의 변화 양상을 조사하고, 이온 전도도 값이 열적 이력에 따라 같은 시료에서도 수백 배 정도 차이가 날 수 있음을 보였다. 이는 PEO의 재결정화 과정이 너무 느리기 때문인 것으로 분석하였다. 따라서 본 연구 결과는 세라믹 충전제 효과가 전도도 이완 현상의 주원인이 아니라는 것을 나타낸다.다.

The lithium ion concentration dependant ionic conductivity and thermal properties of poly(ethylene glycol) methyl ether methacrylate (PEGMA)/acrylonitrile-based copolymer electrolytes with $LiClO_4$ have been studied by differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) and AC complex impedance measurements. In systems with 11 wt% of acrylonitrile all liquid electrolytes were obtained regardless of lithium ion concentration. Complex impedance measurements with stainless steel electrodes give ambient ionic conductivities $8.1\times10^{-6}\sim1.4\times10^{-4}S cm^{-1}$. On the other hand, a hard and soft films at ambient temperature were obtained in copolymer electrolyte system consists of 15 wt% acrylonitrile with 6 : 1 and 3 : 1 of [EO] : [Li] ratio, respectively. DSC measurements indicate the crystalline melting temperature of poly(PEGMA) disappeared completely after addition of $LiClO_4$ in this system due to the complex formation between ethylene oxide (EO) unit and lithium salt. As a result, free standing film with room temperature ionic conductivity of $1.7\times10^{-4}S cm^{-1}$ and high electrochemical stability up to 5.5V was obtained by controlling of acrylonitrile and lithium salt concentration.

The ionic liquid-based sulfonated hydrocarbon composite membranes was prepared for use in anhydrous high temperature-polymer electrolyte fuel cells (HT-PEFCs). Ionic liquid behaves like water in the composite membranes under anhydrous condition. However the composite membranes show a low conductivity and high gas permeability as the content of ionic liquid increases due to its high viscosity and content of ionic liquid, respectively. Hence, in order to enhance the proton conductivity and to reduce the gas permeability of the composite membranes with low content of ionic liquids, the acid containing a common ion of ionic liquid was added to the composite membranes. The characterization of composite membranes was carried out using small-angle X-ray scattering (SAXS), thermogravimetric analyzer (TGA) and impedance spectroscopy. As a result, the composite membranes containing acid showed higher proton conductivity than those with no acid under the un-humidified condition due to a decrease in viscosity. In addition, the proton conductivity of composite membranes increased with increasing mole concentration of acid.

The ionic conductivity of $Li_2O-ZrO_2-SiO_2$ glasses has been designed and analyzed on the basis of a mixture design experiment with constraints. Fitted models for the activation energy and the ionic conductivity are as follows: $Q(kJ/moi)=54.8565x_1+144.825x_2+133.846x_3-170.908x_1x_3-334.338x_2x_3$ $log{\sigma}(300K)=-5.00245x_1-1.17876x_2-15.5173x_3+17.4522x_1x_3$. The electrical properties are very sensitive to the ratio of $Li_2O/SiO_2$. The effect of $ZrO_2$ is less than that of this ratio but $ZrO_2$ component attributes to the reduction of the activation energy. The optimal composition for best ionic conduction based on these fitted models is $55Li_2O{\cdot}10ZrO_2{\cdot}35SiO_2$. Its activation energy and ionic conductivity at 300 K are 46.98 kJ/mol and $1.08{\times}10^{-5}{\Omega}^{-1}{\cdot}cm^{-1}$, respectively.
