Bases de Schiff poliméricas como material de electrodo en baterías de ion sodio

Abstract

Electrochemical energy storage devices are becoming increasingly important to our global society, and polymeric materials are crucial components of these devices. As the demand for high-energy density batteries increases, innovative new materials that build on the fundamental understanding of physical phenomena and structure–property relationships will be required to enable high-capacity next-generation battery chemistries. In this paper, we discuss polymer Schiff bases as potential large-scale and low-cost anode materials for sodium ion batteries. Specifically, we discuss the design of advanced polymeric materials for desired mechanical adhesion to the current collector, high-capacity, increased ionic and electronic conductivity and specific chemical interactions. These polymers meet the criteria of raw materials abundance and synthetic viability demanded by 21st century sustainable applications especially those involving large scale
