Abstract

<abstract abstract-type="graphical" xml:lang="en"> <title> <x xml:space="preserve">Abstract</x> </title> <p>Imprintable, bendable, and shape‐conformable polymer electrolytes for use in versatile‐shaped lithium batteries with 3D‐structured electrodes or flexible characteristics are reported by Sang‐Young Lee, Kuk Young Cho, and co‐workers <ext-link ext-link-type="doi" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink">on p. 1395</ext-link>. The structural uniqueness and well‐tuned rheological properties of UV‐curable electrolyte mixtures comprising a triacrylate monomer, a high‐boiling‐point liquid electrolyte, and inorganic nanoparticles, in combination with direct UV‐assisted nanoimprint lithography, enable successful fabrication of advanced polymer electrolytes in geometries that lie far beyond those accessible with conventional electrolytes. <boxed-text content-type="graphic" position="anchor" orientation="portrait"><graphic position="anchor" mimetype="image" xlink:href="ark:/27927/pgg1v8tmgbb" orientation="portrait" xlink:type="simple" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" /></boxed-text></p> </abstract>
