Summary
The performances of solid-state batteries using polyacetylene, (CH)x, as electrode material have been investigated. Two kinds of solid electrolytes, RbAg4I5 and Ag26I18W4O16, have been used with silver anodes. Both types of cells are able to discharge at room temperature. The performances of cells such as internal resistance, electromotive force, discharging ability, capacity, etc., have been measured under different conditions. The secondary effect of the solid-state batteries is investigated also. Moreover, the differences between the two kinds of cells have been compared and discussed.
