Abstract

A polymeric chain consisting primarily of vinylidene fluoride, onto which is grafted a mono-unsaturated carboxylic acid, ester, or amide, for example acrylic acid, may be combined with a lithium salt and a solvent to form an electrolyte material. This may be used as electrolyte in a lithium cell, or may be combined with an insertion material to make a composite electrode for such a cell. The electrolyte, and so also the composite electrode incorporating this electrolyte, adheres well to a metal current collector.
