Article Abstract
A series of anionic poly(ionic liquid)s with 1,2,3-triazolium counter cations are prepared by cation exchange between tailormade 1,3,4-trialkylated-1,2,3-triazolium iodides and a polystyrene derivative having pendant potassium bis(trifluoromethylsulfonyl)imide groups. The physical and ion-conducting properties of the resulting materials are compared to the parent potassium-containing polyelectrolyte based on H NMR, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), and broadband dielectric spectroscopy (BDS) measurements. Substitution of the potassium counter cation by 1,2,3-triazolium charge carriers affords polyelectrolytes with improved processability (broader solubility and removal of the crystalline behavior) as well as a substantial increase in anhydrous ionic conductivity.

Self-assembly of proteins and polyelectrolytes in aqueous solutions is a promising approach for the development of advanced biotherapeutics and engineering efficient biotechnological processes. Synthetic polyions containing sterically repulsive ethylene oxide moieties are especially attractive as protein modifying agents, as they can potentially induce a PEGylation-like stabilizing effect without the need for complex covalent binding reactions. In this study, we investigated the protein-binding properties of anionic polyelectrolytes based on an inorganic polyphosphazene backbone, with ethylene oxide groups incorporated into both grafted and linear macromolecular topologies.

High ionic conductivity poly(ionic liquid)s (PILs) are of growing interest for their thermal and electrochemical stability, processability, and potential in safe, flexible all-solid-state electrochemical devices. While various approaches to enhance the ionic conductivity are reported, the influence of cation substituents is rarely addressed. Moreover, some of the asymmetric anions recently developed for high-conductivity ionic liquids were never tested in PILs.

Double hydrophilic diblock copolymers (GA and GA), composed of non-charged poly(glycosyloxyethyl methacrylate) (PGEMA, G) and cationic poly((3-acrylamidopropyl)trimethylammonium chloride), were synthesized via reversible addition-fragementation chain transfer (RAFT) radical polymerization. Likewise, diblock copolymers (GS and GS), composed of PGEMA and anionic poly(2-acrylamido-2-methylpropanesulfonate) were synthesized via RAFT. The subscripts in these abbreviations indicate the degree of polymerization (DP) of each block.

Polymer-in-salt electrolytes were introduced three decades ago as an innovative solution to the challenge of low Li-ion conductivity in solvent-free solid polymer electrolytes. Despite significant progress, the approach still faces considerable challenges, ranging from a fundamental understanding to the development of suitable polymers and salts. A critical issue is maintaining both the stability and high conductivity of molten salts within a polymer matrix, which has constrained their further exploration.

Triazoliums are a family of five-membered heterocyclic cations that contain three nitrogen and two carbon atoms. In contrast to the widely studied imidazolium cations, triazoliums are less explored. In terms of the chemical structure, triazolium replaces a carbon atom in the imidazolium cation ring with an electron-withdrawing nitrogen atom, which makes the triazolium more polarized.
