Funded Activity Summary

Development of inorganic-conducting polymer composites and ionic liquid-based electrolytes for rechargeable lithium batteries. The project will lead to development of safe lithium batteries for electric vehicles and hybrid electric vehicles to contribute to the national priority goal of reducing and capturing emissions in transport to improve our environment. Small, flexible batteries for new implantable medical devices will also be developed to treat millions of people suffering from different diseases. The development of new scientific knowledge related to this project will place Australia at the forefront of an emerging domain of research. The project will take the incentive in establishing a leading national position in development of new energy storage technology.
