본 실험에서는 다양한 조성의 AMPS, POEM 및 GMA를 함유하는 공중합체를 합성하고, AMPS의 술폰산기와 $Li_2CO_3$와의 산염기 반응 및 에폭시기의 가교반응을 유도하여 가교결합된 poly(POEM-co-AMPSLi-co-GMA) 전해질을 제조하였다. POEM의 결정융점은 AMPS 및 POEM의 몰분율에 따라 변화되는 특징을 관찰할 수 있었으며, 리튬이온이 도입된 이후 대체적으로 감소되는 경향이 나타났다. 가교된 고분자의 이온전도도는 GMA의 함량이 증가할수록 다소 감소되는 결과가 나타났지만, 16 mol%까지는 $1.0{\times}10^{-6}S\;cm^{-1}$ 이상의 값을 보여주었다. 특히, 자기-도핑형 전해질임에도 불구하고 2 mol%에서 최대 $4.08{\times}10^{-6}S\;cm^{-1}$의 높은 상온이온전도도가 얻어졌으며, 상온에서 6 V까지 우수한 전기화학적 안정성을 보여주었다. 또한 가교된 고분자전해질은 필름성형이 가능하며, 0.11 MPa의 탄성계수 및 270%의 변형율을 보여주었다.

리튬 이온 전지에서 높은 이온전도도, 넓은 전위창 등과 같은 요건을 만족시키는 최적의 전해질을 찾는 연구를 수행하였다. 이와 함께 초기 충전 중에 카본 부극 표면에 형성된 피막의 성질이 사용된 용매에 따라 어떻게 변화되는지에 대한 연구를 수행하였다. 카본 부극 표면에 형성된 피막의 전기화학적 성질이 전해액의 혼합 용매비에 따라 변화되는 경향을 관찰하였고 그 원인을 규명하였다. 전자현미경법, 시간대 전압법, 순화 전압 전류법, 임피던스법을 이용하여 관찰된 결과에 따르면, 혼합 용매의 이온 전도도에 따라 혼합 용매분해 전위 및 카본 부극 표면에 형성된 피막의 전기화학적 성질이 달랐다.

결정성 및 무정형 고분자 전해질의 이온전도 거동에 미치는 초임계 이산화탄소 (sc$CO_2$) 유체의 영향에 대해 조사하였다. 본 연구는 폴리에테르 전해질의 이온전도도 향상에 관한 새로운 개념의 접근 방법이다. sc$CO_2$ 처리결과, 결정성 PEO 전해질의 경우 실온에서 100배 이상의, 무정형 PMEO 전해질은 9$0^{\circ}C$에서 30배 가까운 이온전도도의 상승을 나타내었다. 이는 고분자 매트릭스 내부로 $CO_2$ 분자가 침투함으로써 이온 분산효과로 캐리어 이온의 수를 증가시키고 가소화 효과로 인해 유리전이온도를 저하시켜 이온이동도를 향상시킨 결과이다.

리튬이차전지는 충방전의 반복 동안의 액체전해질과 리튬음극과의 반응으로 수지상결정의 성장으로 리튬이 차전지에 있어서 안전성의 문제를 일으킨다. 고분자 전해질은 수지상 결정 형성을 억제하며 전해질에 성능을 향상시키는 연구가 활발히 진행중이다. 본 연구에서는 겔 전해질에 $Al_2O_3$를 첨가하여 전해질의 표면구조와 임피던스 특성을 조사하였다. 리튬이온의 수율은 $10wt\%\;PAN-Al_2O_3$ 전해질에 5mV의 전압을 인가했을 때 0.29였고 전해질의 이온전도도는 상온에서$2.3\times10^{-4} S/cm$였다. 무기 충진제가 고분자 전해질에 첨가되었을 때 이온전도도 및 이온수율은 무기 충진제가 첨가되지 않은 것보다 높게 나타났다.

The plasticized polymer electrolytes based on polyvinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene (P(VdF-co-HFP)), tetra (ethylene glycol) dimethyl ether (TEGDME), and lithium perchlorate ($LiClO_4$) are prepared for the lithium sulfur batteries by solution casting with a doctor-blade. The polymer electrolyte with EO : Li ratio of 16 : 1 shows the maximum ionic conductivity, $6.5\;{\times}\;10^{-4}\;S/cm$ at room temperature. To understand the effect of the salt concentration on the electrochemical performance, the polymer electrolytes are characterized using electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), infrared spectroscopy (IR), viscometer, and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC). The optimum concentration and mobility of the charge carriers could lead to enhance the utilization of sulfur active materials and the cyclability of the Li/S unit cell.

A polymer electrolyte was prepared by using polyvinylidenefluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVdF-HFP) or poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate (PEGDMA) as polymer matrices, succinonitrile as an additive, and lithium perchlorate as a lithium salt. Compared to the polymer electrolyte employing PVdF-HFP, the PEGDMA-based polymer electrolyte exhibits substantially superior thermal stability when exposed to high temperatures. Nonetheless, the ionic conductivity of the PEGDMA-based polymer electrolyte was preserved in a wide temperature range between $-20^{\circ}C$ and $80^{\circ}C$.

The corrosion property of aluminum by lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) salt is investigated in liquid and gel electrolytes consisting of ethylene carbonate/propylene carbonate/ethylmethyl carbonate/diethyl carbonate (20:5:55:20, vol %) with vinylene carbonate (2 wt %) and fluoroethylene carbonate (5 wt %) using conductivity measurement, cyclic voltammetry, scanning electron microscopy, and energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy. All corrosion behaviors are attenuated remarkably by using three gel electrolytes containing 3 wt % of hydrophilic and hydrophobic fumed silica. The addition of silica particles contributes to the increase in the ionic conductivity of the electrolyte, indicating temporarily formed physical crosslinking among the silica particles to produce a gel state. Cyclic voltammetry also gives lower anodic current responses at higher potentials for repeating cycles, confirming further corrosion attenuation or electrochemical stability. In addition, the degree of corrosion attenuation can be affected mainly by the electrolytic constituents, not by the hydrophilicity or hydrophobicity of silica particles.

As the size of market for electric vehicles and energy storage systems grows, the demand for lithium-ion batteries (LIBs) is increasing. Currently, commercial LIBs are fabricated with liquid electrolytes, which have some safety issues such as low chemical stability, which can cause ignition of fire. As a substitute for liquid electrolytes, solid electrolytes are now being extensively studied. However, solid electrolytes have disadvantages of low ionic conductivity and high resistance at interface between electrode and electrolyte. In this study, Li₇La₃Zr₂O₁₂ (LLZO), one of the best ion conducting materials among oxide based solid electrolytes, is fabricated through RF-sputtering and various electrochemical properties are analyzed. Moreover, the electrochemical properties of LLZO are found to significantly improve with co-sputtered Li₂O. An all-solid thin film battery is fabricated by introducing a thin film solid electrolyte and an Li₄Ti₅O₁₂ (LTO) cathode; resulting electrochemical properties are also analyzed. The LLZO/Li₂O (60W) sample shows a very good performance in ionic conductivity of 7.3×10^-8 S/cm, with improvement in c-rate and stable cycle performance.

Urethane acrylate oligomer was synthesized and used in a gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) and then its electrochemical performances were evaluated. $LiCoO_2/GPE/graphite$ cells were prepared and their performances depending on discharge currents and temperatures were evaluated. The precursor containing $5 vol\%$ curable mixture had a low viscosity relatively. ionic conductivity of the gel polymer electrolyte at room temperature and $-20^{\circ}C$ was ca. $5.9\times10^{-3}S{\cdot}cm^{-1}\;and\;1.4times10^{-3}S{\cdot}cm^{-1}$, respectively. GPE showed good electrochemical stability up to potential of 4.5V vs. RLi/Li^+.\;LiCoO_2/GPE/graphite$ cell showed a good high-rate and low-temperature performance.

In this study, a $Li_2ZrO_3$ coated $Li[Ni_{0.8}Co_{0.15}Al_{0.05}]O_2$ (NCA) cathode was applied to an all-solid-state cell employing a sulfide-based solid electrolyte. Sulfide-based solid electrolytes are preferable for all-solid-state cells because of their high ionic conductivity and good softness and elasticity. However, sulfides are very reactive with oxide cathodes, and this reduces the stability of the cathode/electrolyte interface of all-solid-state cells. $Li_2ZrO_3$ is expected to be a suitable coating material for the cathode because it can suppress the undesirable reactions at the cathode/sulfide electrolyte interface because of its good stability and high ionic conductivity. Cells employing $Li_2ZrO_3$ coated NCA showed superior capacity to those employing pristine NCA. Analysis by X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy and electron energy loss spectroscopy confirmed that the $Li_2ZrO_3$ coating layer suppresses the propagation of S and P into the cathode and the reaction between the cathode and the sulfide solid electrolyte. These results show that $Li_2ZrO_3$ coating is promising for reducing undesirable side reactions at the cathode/electrolyte interface of all-solid-state-cells.
