Network Relaxation and Cooperativity in Ion Conducting Polymers PEO-Li: An Analysis Based on the BSCNF Model

Abstract:

The understanding of fundamental materials properties is indispensable for the development of functional materials. Some years ago, it has been reported that the fragility in poly (ethylene oxide)-based Li⁺ ion conductors decreases with the Li⁺ ion content. The behavior was considered as unexpected and the origin unclear. In the present study, it is shown that the Bond Strength-Coordination Number Fluctuation (BSCNF) model of structural relaxation developed by the present authors provides an explanation to the observed behavior. The analysis based on the BSCNF model indicates that the cooperativity, or the number of correlated structural units involved in the network relaxation decreases with the Li⁺ ion content.
