Organic ionic plastic crystals (OIPCs) have been studied as solid-state electrolytes because of their desirable properties such as non-flammability, plasticity, and ionic conductivity. However, the temperature range of their conductive plastic cry...
Push-coating is a simple process that can be employed for extremely low-cost polymer electronic device production. Here, we demonstrate its application to the fabrication of poly(2,7-carbazole-alt-dithienylbenzothiadiazole) (PCDTBT):[6,6]-phenyl-C...
Ionic liquids (Ls) are promising electrolyte materials for developing next-generation rechargeable batteries. In order to improve their properties, several kinds of additives have been investigated. In this study, beta-cyclodextrin (beta-CD) was c...
Five kinds of protic ionic liquids (PILs) were synthesized by the neutralization reaction of amidine and carboxylic acid (acetic acid, propionic acid, or butyric acid), and the esterification reaction of cellulose, using acetic anhydride, was carr...
