This paper presnets the characteristics of electropolymerization and electrochemicla propoerties of polyaniline(PAn). From the morphology study on the PAn surface, it seems that coagulation of the fibrils on the surface proceeds as the PAn grows, resulting in fibril clusters with new branches and more extensive voids. While PAn/Li cell is cycled at potential range between 2.9V and 3.7V in which the first strong reduction peak of 2.75V does not appear, its oxidation reduction capacities were increased up to about tenth cycle. Electricity efficiency of stable charge-discharge to deep discharge in PAn/Li cell was 42.9%. Average charge potential, avergae discharge potential, energy density, and charge-discharge energy efficiency of the PAn/Li cell were 3.4V, 3.25V, 132.9Wh/kg, and 95.6%, respectively.

The discharge capacitance of PAn-Carbon on composite with 30wt% Acetylene Black in 1st and 50th cycles was 29 and 31F/g at current density of $1mA/cm^2$. The capacitance of PAn-Carbon composite with 30wt% Acetylene Black capacitor was larger than that of PAn capacitor without Acetylene Black. The coulombic efficiency of supercapacitor at discharge process of 1 and 50 cycles were 94 and 100%. respectively. PAn-Carbon composite Supercapacitor with 30wt.% Acetylene Black content showed good capacitance and stability with cycling.

Si-C composites were prepared by the carbonization of polyaniline (PAn) coated on silicone powder. The physical and electrochemical properties of the Si-C composites were characterized by particle-size analysis, X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, and battery electrochemical tests. The average particle size of Si was increased by the coating of Pan but somewhat reduced by the carbonization to give silicone-carbon composites. The co-existence of crystalline silicone and amorphous-like carbon was confirmed by XRD analyses. SEM photos showed that the silicone particles were well covered with carbonaceous materials, depending on the PAn content. Si-C$\mid$Li cells were fabricated using the Si-C composites and tested using galvanostatic charge-discharge. Si-C$\mid$Li cells gave better electrochemical properties than Si|Li cells. Si-C$\mid$Li cells using Si-C from HCl-undoped precursor PAn showed better electrochemical properties than precursor PAn doped in HCl. The addition of an electrolyte containing 4-fluoroethylene carbonate (FEC) increased the initial discharge capacity. Also, another electrochemical test, the galvanostatic charge-discharge test with GISOC (gradual increasing of the state of charge) was carried out. Si-C(Si:PAn = 50:50 wt. ratio)|Li cell showed 414 mAh/g of reversible specific capacity, 75.7% of IIE (initial intercalation efficiency), 35.4 mAh/g of IICs (surface irreversible specific capacity).

Electrochemical properties of $LiMn_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}PO_4$ cathode were investigated with gel polymer electrolyte (GPE). To access fast and efficient transport of ions and electrons during the charge/discharge process, a pure and well-crystallized $LiMn_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}PO_4$ cathode material was directly synthesized via spray-pyrolysis method. For high operation voltage, polyacrylonitrile (PAN)-based gel polymer electrolyte was then prepared by electrospinning process. The gel polymer electrolyte showed high ionic conductivity of $2.9{\times}10^{-3}S\;cm^{-1}$ at $25^{\circ}C$ and good electrochemical stability. $Li/GEP/LiMn_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}PO_4$ cell delivered a discharge capacity of $159mAh\;g^{-1}$ at 0.1 C rate that was close to the theoretical value ($170mAh\;g^{-1}$). The cell allows stable cycle performance (99.3% capacity retention) with discharge capacity of $133.5mAh\;g^{-1}$ for over 300 cycles at 1 C rate and exhibits high rate-capability. PAN-based gel polymer is a suitable electrolyte for application in $LiMn_{0.8}Fe_{0.2}PO_4/Li$ batteries with perspective in high energy density and safety.
