Abstract

The physicochemical properties of diallyldimethylammonium-bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (DADMATFSI) and its binary mixture with LiTFSI are presented herein, also showing this novel compound as a polymerizable room temperature ionic liquid with excellent transport properties for Li(+) ions. In particular, results of pulsed field gradient (PFG)-NMR diffusion experiments and impedance measurements show that DADMATFSI exhibits state of the art properties of ionic liquids. Similar ionic diffusion coefficients and a similarly high conductivity as seen in the benchmark compound N-butyl-N-methylpyrrolidinium-bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (PYR14TFSI) are observed. In accordance, the Li transference number in the binary mixture matches the trend seen for PYR14TFSI-LiTFSI mixtures. In addition to these impressive properties as ionic liquid, DADMATFSI was polymerized by UV treatment. The polymerization is demonstrated and the ion conducting properties of the resulting gel polymer electrolyte are investigated, showing that DADMATFSI can be transformed into an ionogel and may have applications where polymerization is desirable.
