Summary

Complexes of LiCF3SO3 and a polymer obtained by polymerization of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate (TRGDMA) and its copolymerization with acrylonitrile (AN) at molar ratios of 0.67, 2.0 and 4.0, both in the presence of poly(ethylene glycol) dimethylether as a plasticizer, provides a.c.conductivities in the range between 10-5 and 10-4 S/cm at ambient temperature. An increase of conductivities has been found at growing ratios of [AN]:[TRGDMA] from 0 to 2.0 and molar ratios of ethylene oxide (EO) units: LiCF3SO3 ranging from 12 to about 26. The conductivity is nearly independent on the content of AN at [EO]:[Li+]=52.

The temperature-dependence of the conductivity shows an Arrhenius-type behaviour when the content of the salt and/or acrylonitrile in the network was high.
