The present disclosure relates to electroactive materials that are useful for secondary battery electrode materials and the secondary battery device including thereof. Further, the disclosure relates to cathode and anode materials obtained via the polymerization of triptycene-based organic molecules having one or more arylene diimide groups attached forming a crosslinked network.

Organic triptycene-based molecules having one or more arylene diimide groups attached forming a crosslinked framework useful for lithium ion battery electrodes

The present disclosure provides the use of a biomolecule, flavin, appended to a polymerizable unit that can then be polymerized to form an electroactive active polymer. The polymer and the flavin unit are comprised of an organic material containing C, H, N, and O atoms. The electroactive functionality is related to the double bonds that are present in the flavin unit that are appended to a non-electroactive backbone. This appended unit is rendered insoluble in the electrolyte of the discussed secondary battery unit. Several different molecular structures are disclosed exhibiting efficacy as energy storage medium in energy storage devices. Compounds have also been synthesized from which these different energy storage molecular structures are produced.

Bio-inspired polyflavin electrodes for energy storage devices

A polymer composition for solar cell and flexible electronics devices, where the polymer is a p-type conducting polymer. The p-type polymer comprises a benzothiadiazole acceptor and indeno-fluorene donor. Further, a solar cell and flexible electronic device article may be made from the polymer.

Conjugated polymer composition for solar cell and flexible electronics applications

The present disclosure relates to a process for the synthesis of a conducting polymer comprising a benzothiadiazole acceptor and indeno-fluorene donor of formula [IV].
