Abstract
AbstractThe solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) field has traditionally struggled with sufficiently high cation conduction at room temperature. The reason for this is that ion transport is usually coupled to polymer chain mobility and as such is strongly temperature dependent. The diversification of battery technologies from Li‐ion into Na‐ and K‐ion batteries has revived efforts in the 80s and 90s to develop a broad conceptional understanding and to find overarching trends of the ion transport properties of SPEs based on Group 1 elements, Li+, Na+, K+, Rb+ and Cs+ (i. e. beyond Li). This development brings its own set of challenges, starting from additional constraints to measure heavier cations. With a clearer aim towards tangible battery applications, particularly electrochemical stability and interphase formation, and together with a rising sensibility of sustainability aspects, other parameters have gained more relevance and opened new vectors of research. The associated scientific challenges and recent developments of Group 1 based SPEs shall be reviewed.
