“…Since investigations of PEO-based electrolytes also revealed its tendency to crystallize, poor mechanical properties, low processability, highly hygroscopic nature, ion pairing and salting-out effect at high salt concentrations, a synthesis of organic-inorganic hybrid sol-gel materials, i.e. ormolytes, was proposed to overcome these problems [2,[11][12][13][14][15][16][17][18][19].…”
