High molecular weight solid polymer electrolyte for advanced lithium and sodium battery research
The Cell Lab Polyethylene Oxide (PEO) powder is a high-purity polymer electrolyte material developed for next-generation solid-state lithium-ion and sodium-ion batteries.
Featuring molecular weights between 300,000 and 1,000,000, this semi-crystalline polymer exhibits excellent film-forming ability, ionic conductivity, and mechanical flexibility, making it ideal for solid polymer electrolyte membranes and composite electrolyte fabrication.
Engineered for research and pilot-scale use, PEO provides stable ion transport pathways when combined with lithium salts such as LiTFSI, LiClO₄, or LiPF₆, and can be processed by solution casting, electrospinning, or hot pressing.
Wide Molecular Weight Range (Mv 300k–1M) – Enables control over electrolyte viscosity, film flexibility, and mechanical strength.
Excellent Ionic Conductivity – Supports Li⁺ and Na⁺ transport when complexed with lithium or sodium salts.
Superior Film-Forming Capability – Forms smooth, flexible solid polymer films suitable for membrane or separator use.
High Purity and Batch Consistency – Viscosity 400–800 cP (0.2 % in H₂O, 25 °C) ensures uniform processing quality.
Versatile Processing Methods – Soluble in water and alcohols for solution casting or melt-processing into polymer electrolyte films.

Q1: What lithium salts are compatible with PEO?
A: PEO works well with LiTFSI, LiPF₆, LiClO₄, and LiCF₃SO₃, depending on target ionic conductivity and stability.
Q2: How can PEO be processed into solid electrolyte films?
A: It can be solution-cast, electrospun, or hot-pressed into thin membranes depending on viscosity and solvent system.
Q3: What is the role of molecular weight in electrolyte design?
A: Higher molecular weights provide mechanical stability, while lower ones improve ionic mobility and processability.
Q4: Can PEO be blended with ceramic fillers?
A: Yes. It is often combined with Al₂O₃, SiO₂, or LLZO nanoparticles to improve mechanical and thermal stability.
Q5: What are the recommended storage conditions?
A: Store in sealed containers under dry argon or nitrogen to prevent moisture uptake.
