Novel fluorinated boronate-based compounds which act as anion receptors in non-aqueous battery electrolytes are provided. When added to non-aqueous battery electrolytes, the fluorinated boronate-based compounds of the invention enhance ionic conductivity and cation transference number of non-aqueous electrolytes. The fluorinated boronate-based anion receptors include different fluorinated alkyl and aryl groups.

The present invention relates to electrochemical storage devices containing a non-aqueous lithium based electrolyte with high ionic conductivity, low impedance, and high thermal stability. More particularly, this invention relates to the design, synthesis and application of novel fluorinated arylboron oxalate based compounds which act as anion receptors and/or additives for non-aqueous batteries. When used as an anion receptor for non-aqueous battery electrolytes, the fluorinated arylboron oxalate enhances conductivity, lithium ion transference number and Solid Electrolyte Interface (SEI) formation capability during the formation cycling.

A family of aza-ether based compounds including linear, multi-branched and aza-crown ethers is provided. When added to non-aqueous battery electrolytes, the new family of aza-ether based compounds acts as neutral receptors to complex the anion moiety of the electrolyte salt thereby increasing the conductivity and the transference number of LI. sup. + ion in alkali metal batteries.

The present invention relates to ion-conducting solvent-free polymeric systems characterized as being cationic single ion conductors. The solvent-free polymer electrolytes comprise a flexible polymer backbone to which is attached a metal salt, such as a lithium, sodium or potassium salt, of a sterically hindered phenol. The solid polymer electrolyte may be prepared either by (1) attaching the hindered phenol directly to a flexible polymeric backbone, followed by neutralization of the phenolic OH's or (2) reacting the hindered phenol with a polymer precursor which is then polymerized to form a flexible polymer having phenolic OH's which are subsequently neutralized. Preferably the hindered phenol-modified polymeric backbone contains a polyether segment. The ionic conductivity of these solvent-free polymer electrolytes has been measured to be in the range of 10. sup. -4 to 10. sup. -7 S cm. sup. -1 at room temperature.
