Insights into the Solubility of Poly(vinylphenothiazine) in Carbonate-Based Battery Electrolytes.

Organic materials are promising candidates for next-generation battery systems. However, many organic battery materials suffer from high solubility in common battery electrolytes. Such solubility can be overcome by introducing tailored high-molecular-weight polymer structures, for example, by cross-linking, requiring enhanced synthetic efforts.

Phenothiazine-Functionalized Poly(norbornene)s as High-Rate Cathode Materials for Organic Batteries.

Organic cathode materials are handled as promising candidates for new energy-storage solutions based on their transition-metal-free composition. Phenothiazine-based polymers are attractive owing to their redox potential of 3.5 V vs.
