Organometallic polymer material for energy storage

Chem Commun (Camb). 2014 Jun 28;50(51):6768-70. doi: 10.1039/c4cc01572j.

Abstract

Ferrocene-based polymers, poly(ferrocenyl-methylsilane) and its derivatives, were synthesised by ring-opening polymerization. The product shows promising cathode application in Li-ion, Na-ion and all-organic batteries. The ultra-high power density, excellent cycling stability and decent capacity performance makes it comparable or even superior to the conventional inorganic electrode materials.
