Abstract :
Bulk and solution polymerization of reactive ionic liquid surfactants (RILSs) yield easily engineered advanced polymers that can be tailored for diverse applications. Introductory results based upon an RILS composed of an amphiphilic imidazolium acrylate (IL) and a 2-acrylo-amido-2-methyl-propylsulfonate (AMPS) are illustrated for humidity sensitive preparations suitable for chemFETs, for proton conducting polymer electrolyte membranes (PEM) suitable for fuel cell fabrication, for lithium ion and silver ion conducting membranes suitable for fast ionic conducting batteries, and for high-k dielectrics based on in situ reduction of incorporated ionic silver.
