Synopsis

An Introduction to Redox Polymers for Energy-Storage Applications

Presents a well-founded introduction to the field or Redox Polymers, with didactical features like summary boxes and a Q&A sections

An Introduction to Redox Polymers for Energy-Storage Applications discusses fundamental aspects related to polymer-based batteries, such as types of batteries, their historic development, design and synthesis criteria of the active material, and summarizes the various types of redox polymers and their applications. Each chapter contains learning objectives, summary boxes, and questions to allow for efficient exam preparation.

In An Introduction to Redox Polymers for Energy-Storage Applications, readers will find detailed information on:

• Fundamental aspects of redox-active polymers, along with their historical classification, taking the key applications of the materials into account
• Energy-storage devices, containing polymers as the electrode active materials, and specific material requirements for the desired applications
• Classification of redox-active polymers, e.g., according to the nature of the actual redox-active moieties, their backbone structure, or topology
• Electrical conductivity of conjugated polymers, covering their most prominent representatives (polyaniline, polypyrrole, polythiophene, and polyacetylene)

An Introduction to Redox Polymers for Energy-Storage Applications also covers the synthesis and applications of these materials, making it an excellent book for graduates, PhD students, and professionals who are starting in this field.
