Advanced batteries

We develop new polymers for lithium and post-lithium battery technologies, driving safer, more sustainable and more efficient solutions for energy storage.

We investigate the design of ion-conducting polymers and redox polymers aimed at lithium batteries and emerging technologies based on sodium, zinc, magnesium or calcium. A central part of our activity focuses on the development of solid polymer electrolytes for solid-state lithium metal batteries.
We also work on a new generation of polymeric binders that support more sustainable battery production and recycling. Furthermore, we explore the potential of redox polymers in emerging technologies such as redox-flow batteries and all-organic batteries.
