A class of sp3 boron-based single-ion polymeric electrolytes for lithium ion batteries

A class of sp3 boron-based polymeric compounds with highly exposed lithium cations is both thermally and electrochemically stable for use in Li-ion batteries. Syntheses of a variety of the sp3 boron-based polymeric materials can be realized by taking advantage of the well-developed methods used for preparation of metal organic framework compounds.
