To design polymer electrolytes with high ionic conductivity as well as fast charge-transfer reaction at the electrode interface, electrolyte properties of a novel lithium salt of a weakly coordinating anion, lithium tetra(1,1,1,3,3,3-hexafluoro-2-propyl)aluminate, LiAl[OCH(CF3)2]4, have been studied in the bulk, in aprotic solvents, and in a polyether. Although the lithium salt melts at fairly low temperature, it shows poor conductivity even in the molten state because of its strong ionic association. However, in aprotic solvents, LiAl[OCH(CF3)2]4 exhibits a relatively high degree of dissociation because of weak coordination ability of the anion toward the cation. This is reflected in the higher ionic conductivity than that of common lithium salts, LiN(SO2CF3)2 and LiBF4, at an identical concentration in the low polar solvents. In a polyether, an increase in the glass-transition temperature (Tg) of the polymer electrolytes with salt concentration is less marked in the LiAl[OCH(CF3)2]4 system. The lithium ...
