Melem-Perylene Diimide Polymer Network as Efficient Positive Electrode for Rechargeable Lithium and Magnesium Batteries.

ABSTRACT: Organic battery electrode materials represent a sustainable alternative compared to most inorganic electrodes, yet challenges persist regarding their energy density and cycling stability. In this work, a new organic electrode material is described, which is obtained via ionothermal polymerization of low-cost starting materials, melem (2,5,8-triamino-tri-s-triazine) and perylenetetracarboxylic dianhydride (PTCDA). The resulting networked polymer Melem-PDI exhibits favorable thermal and electrochemical properties, prompting investigation into its performance as a positive electrode material in rechargeable lithium and magnesium batteries. A hybrid material with carbon nanotubes (Melem-PDI-CNT) is found to exhibit-excellent cycling stability in Li-ion batteries at a current rate as high as 50
