Popis: Solid redox polymerization electrodes (SRPEs) have recently been used successfully as cathodes in lithium solid polymer electrolyte batteries. SRPEs contain organopolydisulfides, (SRS) n , as the electroactive material; upon cell discharge these materials are reductively depolymerized via scission of the disulfide linkages to di- or trithiolate salts. The thiolate salts are reoxidized to the polymeric disulfides when the cell is recharged. Organopolydisulfides are easily synthesized via a one-step process, are inexpensive, and exhibit high performance levels in batteries
