Thianthrene-functionalized polynorbornenes as high-voltage materials for organic cathode-based dual-ion batteries†
Abstract
Thianthrene-functionalized polynorbornenes were investigated as high-voltage organic cathode materials for dual-ion cells. The polymers show reversible oxidation reactions in solution and as a solid in composite electrodes. Constant current investigations displayed a capacity of up to 66 mA h g−1 at a high potential of 4.1 V vs. Li/Li+.
