✦ Synopsis

Vanadium oxides prepared via the sol-gel technique have been shown to exhibit high capacities as positive electrodes in polymeric electrolytelithium cells. One of the main advantages of the sol-gel technique is the facility to place additives into a dilute gel mixture which may then be frozen into the resulting oxide structure. By using this method, novel composites have been prepared by incorporating ionically and electronically conducting polymers into the vanadium oxide matrix.
