Ipzz-266 ((link)) -
The coexistence of comparable ionic and electronic conductivities (ionic/electronic ratio ≈ 0.17 at 80 °C) enables IPZZ‑266 to serve as a , eliminating the need for separate electrolyte and electronic binder layers. This architecture reduces interfacial resistance and simplifies device fabrication.
The convergence of ionic liquids (ILs) and conjugated polymers (CPs) has opened a promising route toward multifunctional materials that simultaneously transport ions and electrons. ILs possess negligible vapor pressure, high ionic conductivity, and wide electrochemical windows, whereas CPs such as polythiophene, polypyrrole, and poly(3,4‑ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) provide delocalized π‑electron pathways for electronic conduction. Merging these two families into a single polymeric scaffold—poly(ionic‑liquid) (PIL) composites—has demonstrated enhanced charge storage, mechanical robustness, and processability (see Ref. [1‑4]).
