A class of sulfonimide salts for solid-state electrolytes can be synthesized based on successive SAr reactions of fluorinated phenyl sulfonimides: Fluorinated Aryl Sulfonimide Tags (FAST). The chemical and electrochemical oxidative stability of these FAST salts as well as other properties like solubility, Lewis basicity, and conductivity can be tuned by introducing different numbers and types of nucleophilic functional groups to the FAST salt scaffold.

Sulfonimide salts for battery applications

A metal-oxygen battery can provide improved energy storage and transportation applications due to high gravimetric energies, and such a metal-oxygen battery can include a polyolefin including a plurality of functional groups such as sulfamide, sulfoxy, carbonyl, phosphoramide or heterocyclic groups.

Metal-oxygen battery and components thereof

A polymer compound including a repeating unit represented by Formula: wherein R, R, R, R, a1, a2, and a11 in Formula 1 are as defined in the specification.

Polymer compound, solid electrolyte film including the same, and lithium-air battery including the solid electrolyte film

Electrolytes and polymers for a lithium battery can include a fluorinated aryl sulfonimide salt or fluorinated aryl sulfonimide polymer.

Small molecule and polymeric anions for lithium-solvate complexes: synthesis and battery applications

Methods, compositions, reagents, and systems that allow for the preparation and utilization of sulfonamide salt polymer electrolytes are disclosed herein. Methods and reagents to prepare sulfonamide salt monomers are also disclosed herein. The sulfonamide salt polymer electrolytes can be used as components in energy storage devices, conductive materials, electrochemical cells, gels, adhesives, and drug delivery vehicles.
