Abstrakt: Developing all-solid-state polymer electrolytes (SPEs) with high electrochemical performances and stability is of great importance for exploiting of high energy density and safe batteries. Herein, ether linkage and imidazolium ionic liquid (ILs) are incorporated into the multi-armed polymer backbone though the series and parallel way. The parallel polymeric ionic liquid (P-P (PEGMA-IM)) maximizes the synergistic effect of ILs and ether linkage, which endowed the material with low crystallinity and high flame retardancy. The P-P (PEGMA-IM) based P-SPE presents a high ionic conductivity of 0.489 mS/cm at 60 °C, an excellent lithium-ion transference number of 0.46 and a wide electrochemical window of 4.87 V. The assembled lithium metal battery using P-SPE can deliver a capacity of 151 mAh/g at 0.2 C, and the capacity retention ratio reaches 82% with a columbic efficiency beyond 99%. The overpotential of P-SPE based symmetric battery is 0.08 V, and there is no apparent magnifying even after 130 h cycling. This new design provides a new avenue for exploitation of advanced SPEs for the next-generation batteries.
