Physical properties of amorphous polyether networks
Dynamical mechanical spectroscopy characterization has been made of cross-linked polyether electrolytes. A good correlation has been observed between the mechanical and thermal data on the glass transition and melting temperatures. Storage modulus dependence with temperature shows an elastomeric behavior of these electrolytes. The mechanical analysis has shown a real plasticizing effect of the salt at very low concentration.
