Solid-state lithium metal batteries (SSLMBs) have attracted considerable attention as one of the most promising energy storage systems owing to their high safety and density. Solid electrolytes, particularly polymer-based composite solid electrolytes (CSEs), are considered electrolyte candidates for SSLMBs. However, wide application is inhibited by various electrochemical issues, such low ionic...

A novel organic polymer composite for the encapsulation of metal catalysts and applications to synthesis are described here.

Ionic polymer–metal composite (IPMC) is a promising candidate for underwater sensing due to the merits of rapid response, flexibility, miniaturization, and self-powered nature. The high sensitivity sensor vital robots. Inspired by lateral line cilia fish, new water flow system based on multi-ciliated structure IPMC presented improve sensor. As illustrated experiments oscillatory flow, detection...

Abstract Soft robotic fish has a lot of benefits. This paper aims to create with soft pectoral caudal fin which was powered by IPMC material. The fish’s hydrodynamic performance during straight swimming is numerically computed using the overset grid approach. Compared tail driven driving frequency 0.05 Hz and those together three fins different frequencies amplitude, coefficients pressure bioni...

The main theoretical concepts on ionic conduction at interfaces, especially the space charge layer model, are summarized in the ®rst part of this review: ion trapping or redistribution leads to charge carrier accumulation, depletion or inversion and, consequently, to conductivity changes in composite materials. Experimental con®rmations of the space charge layer model and the complementary perc...
