Accelerating ion transport by dynamic asymmetry of alternating polymer electrolytes
Polymer based electrolytes allow the absence of volatile components in batteries thus increasing their safety. Yet, they exhibit drawbacks based on their low conductivity. We have used an alternating polymer consisting of dimethyl siloxane (DMS) and ethylene glycol (EG) blocks to circumvent known disadvantages of the usually used polyethylene glycol (PEG). Incorporating di…

Backbone Dynamics of Bottlebrush Polymers Studied by Neutron Scattering
Bottlebrush polymers have a versatile architecture that is highly customizable due to the combination of a linear backbone and side chains. As a result of the chemical tethering of the side chains, both parts cannot be easily be separated. Huge effort is seen regarding the dynamical behavior of the side chains or the entire bottlebrush polymer, whereas few studies are avai…
