The effect of the supercritical carbon dioxide (sc$CO_2$) on ion-conductive behaviors for polyether electrolytes based on, both poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly [oligo (oxyethylene glycol) methacrylate] (PMEO) with lithium triflate, LiCF$_3$SO$_3$, has been investigated. In particular, the present research is a new concept for improving the ionic conductivity of polyether electrolytes. The maximum ionic conductivity ($\sigma$$_{max}$) at room temperature of the PEO electrolyte was more than 100 times higher, and the $\sigma$$_{max}$ at 9$0^{\circ}C$ of the PMEO electrolyte was 30 times improved by the se$CO_2$ treatment, respectively. It was revealed that the penetration of $CO_2$ molecules into the polymer matrix causes the increase of carrier ions by ion-dispersion effect and the decrease of glass transition temperature (T$_{g}$) by plasticizing effect that results in the improvement of the ion transport behaviors.viors.

Boron trifluoride lithium methacrylate ($BF_3$LiMA)-based gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) were synthesized with various $BF_3$LiMA concentration to elucidate the effect on ionic conductivity and electrochemical stability by a AC impedance and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV). As a result, the highest ionic conductivity reached $5.3{\times}10^{-4}Scm^{-1}$ at $25^{\circ}C$ was obtained for 4 wt% of $BF_3$LiMA. Furthermore, high electrochemical stability up to 4.3 V of the $BF_3$LiMA-based GPE was observed in LSV measurement since the counter anion was immobilized in this self-doped system. On the other hand, it was assumed that there was a rapid decomposition of electrolytes on a lithium metal electrode which results in a high solid electrolyte interface (SEI) resistance. However, a high stability toward graphite or lithium cobalt oxide (LCO) electrode thereby a low SEI resistance was observed from the AC impedance measurement as a function of storage time at $25^{\circ}C$. Consequently, the high ionic conductivity, good electrochemical stability and the good interfacial compatibility with graphite and LCO were achieved in $BF_3$LiMA-based GPE.

Technologies for lithium secondary batteries are now increasingly expanding to simultaneously improve the safety and higher energy and power densities of large-scale battery systems, such as electric vehicles and smart-grid energy storage systems. Next-generation lithium batteries, such as lithium-sulfur (Li-S) and lithium-air (Li-O₂) batteries by adopting solid electrolytes and lithium metal anode, can be a solution for the requirements. In this analysis of battery technology trends, solid electrolytes, including polymer (organic), inorganic (oxides and sulfides), and their hybrid (composite) are focused to describe the electrochemical performance achievable by adopting optimal components and discussing the interfacial behaviors that occurred by the contact of different ingredients for safe and high-energy lithium secondary battery systems. As next-generation rechargeable lithium batteries, Li-S and Li-O₂ battery systems are briefly discussed coupling with the possible use of solid electrolytes. In addition, Electronics and Telecommunications Research Institutes achievements in the field of solid electrolytes for lithium rechargeable batteries are finally introduced.

Solid polymer electrolyte is very important in the applications to high energy density lithium batteries of high safety. In this work, solid polymer electrolytes based on PE non-woven matrix, hybrid salt, and anion receptor were successfully prepared. They could provide high ion conduction phase with maintaining mechanical strength. They also showed high electrochemical stability and lithium ion transference number. This new type of solid polymer electrolyte is expected to be a good candidate for rechargeable solid state lithium secondary batteries.

In recent years, water-free polymer electrolyte membranes are attracting serious attention due to the possibility of the fuel cell operation at intermediate temperatures ($100{\sim}200^{\circ}C$). It was reported that phosphonic acids have proton conductivity under anhydrous conditions and in particular, relatively high proton conductivity could be obtained from the composite materials with heterocycles such as imidazole, pyrazole, etc. In this work, styrene based polymers, poly((4-vinylbenzyloxy)alkylphosphonic acid), which have phophonic acid group at the end of alkyl chain was synthesized. These polymers were analyzed in terms of thermal stability and proton conductivity. Additionally, cyclic oligosiloxanes tethered with triazole were prepared and analyzed.

In this study, gel polymer electrolytes (GPE) with semi-interpenerating network of poly (methyl methacrylate) and hexanediol dimethacrylate were synthesized and their electrochemical performances were evaluated. LiCoO$_2$/GPE/graphite cells were prepared and their performances depending on discharge currents and temperatures were evaluated. The precursor containing 5 vol% curable mixture had a low viscosity relatively. GPE showed good electrochemical stability up to potential of 4.8 V vs. Li/Li$\^$+/. Ionic conductivity of the gel polymer electrolyte at room temperature and -20$^{\circ}C$ was ca. 5.9 and 1.4${\times}$10$\^$-3/ Scm$\^$-1/, respectively. LiCoO$_2$/GPE/graphite cells showed good rate capability, low-temperature performance and cycleability.
