Abstract

Elastomeric polymer network electrolytes (EPNEs) are an emerging class of materials that combine the mechanical flexibility of elastomers with the ionic conductivity of electrolytes. Conventional liquid or gel-based polymer electrolytes suffer from solvent molecule-related leakage, evaporation, and flammability issues. Solid-state polymer electrolytes offer enhanced safety but tend to be rigid, brittle, and show poor adhesion with limited ionic conductivity. EPNEs offer solvent-free solid-state ionic conduction, enabled by the segmental motion of the flexible polymer chains. Their network structures also offer superior mechanical resilience and elasticity, making them highly promising for advanced electrochemical applications. In this review, we provide a comprehensive overview of EPNEs, comparing their characteristics to other electrolytes, and highlighting the various synthetic methods and design principles employed. Key performance metrics, including ionic conductivity, mechanical strength, and operational stabilities, are discussed in the context of their applications in energy applications, wearable electronics, and soft ionotronics. By addressing the potential of EPNEs and their development directions, this review highlights their critical role in advancing next-generation electrolytes, opening new opportunities for various fields of electrochemical devices.

期刊介绍: Progress in Polymer Science is a journal that publishes state-of-the-art overview articles in the field of polymer science and engineering. These articles are written by internationally recognized authorities in the discipline, making it a valuable resource for staying up-to-date with the latest developments in this rapidly growing field. The journal serves as a link between original articles, innovations published in patents, and the most current knowledge of technology. It covers a wide range of topics within the traditional fields of polymer science, including chemistry, physics, and engineering involving polymers. Additionally, it explores interdisciplinary developing fields such as functional and specialty polymers, biomaterials, polymers in drug delivery, polymers in electronic applications, composites, conducting polymers, liquid crystalline materials, and the interphases between polymers and ceramics. The journal also highlights new fabrication techniques that are making significant contributions to the field. The subject areas covered by Progress in Polymer Science include biomaterials, materials chemistry, organic chemistry, polymers and plastics, surfaces, coatings and films, and nanotechnology. The journal is indexed and abstracted in various databases, including Materials Science Citation Index, Chemical Abstracts, Engineering Index, Current Contents, FIZ Karlsruhe, Scopus, and INSPEC.
