The bulk of the scientific literature on Li-conducting solid (solvent-free) polymer electrolytes
(SPEs) for applications such as Li-based batteries is focused on polyether-based materials …

We review recent works on the synthesis and application of poly (ionic liquid) s (PILs). Novel
chemical structures, different synthetic strategies and controllable morphologies are …

Hydrogel electrolyte is widely used in solid energy storage devices because of its high ionic
conductivity, environmental friendliness, and non‐leakage property. However, hydrogel …

Research on block copolymers (BCPs) has played a critical role in the development of
polymer chemistry, with numerous pivotal contributions that have advanced our ability to …

Soft ionic conductors have enabled stretchable and transparent devices, but liquids in such
devices tend to leak and evaporate. In this study, we demonstrate diodes and transistors …

Stimuli-responsive polymers adapt to their surrounding environment. These polymers are
capable of responding to a variety of external stimuli, which include optical, electrical …

Artificial pressure sensors often use soft materials to achieve skin-like softness, but the
viscoelastic creep of soft materials and the ion leakage, specifically for ionic conductors …

The use of polymer electrolytes instead of liquid organic systems is considered key for
enhancing the safety of lithium batteries and may, in addition, enable the transition to high …

Increasing biomechanical applications of skin-inspired devices raise higher requirements for
the skin-bionic robustness and environmental compatibility of elastomers. Here, a tough and …

Polymerization of ionic liquids results in the formation of ionic polymers, which are called
poly (ionic liquid) s or polymerized ionic liquids (PIL). This is a brand new form of ionicity in …
