In this respect, gel electrolytes are more attractive due to less possibility of electrolyte leakage and safer if abused. Unfortunately, most present gel electrolyte systems are mainly based on polyethers which supposed to be flammable. In addition, PEO and PPO based systems exhibit a low cation transference number. Therefore, the seeking of novel thermally stable and safety polymer electrolytes with improved electrochemical behaviour is crucial. In the present contribution, we propose a series of Li-ion conducting polymer electrolytes based on the poly(ethyleneglycol) (PEG) borate ester (PE-350B) and PEG-methacrylates (PME-400 and PDE-600, respectively) plasticized by M550B100 PEG-borate ester, which can be characterized as a thermally stable solvent with high flash point [1].enpolymer electrolytegel electrolytesArticle
