Polyimide belongs to the class of high performance polymers containing imide functionalities in the backbone. Polyimide has wide ranging properties of optical transparency, heat stability, mechanical strength, dimensional stability, thermal conductivity, dielectric properties, etc. Fullerene is a zero dimensional hollow symmetrical nanocarbon, frequently employed as nanofiller in the polymers. Fullerene has been reinforced in the polyimide films to further augment the exclusive features and performance. This state-of-the-art review basically emphases the fundamentals, structure, properties, and applications of polyimide films, especially the films reinforced with fullerene nanofiller. The polyimide/fullerene nanocomposite films have been prepared using facile routes such as solution casting, spin casting, in situ method, and other film forming methods. Fullerene nanofiller has been filled in numerous designed polyimides. Number of experimental and theoretical studies have been performed on the high performance polymer/fullerene nanocomposite films. The structural diversity of the polymer/fullerene nanocomposite films and inimitable characteristics have led to significant applications in the optoelectronic devices, photodetectors, and sensors.

Solid polymer electrolyte‐based batteries show great promise because of their safe operating properties, wide voltage window and suitable flexibility. However, low ionic conductivity, low cation transfer number, weak oxidation/reduction resistance and low mechanical strength limit their implementation in Zn ion batteries. Here, w e developed a “polymer‐in‐salt” Zn2+‐conductive solid electrolyte (denoted as 70% salt‐SPE) constructed by a simple and fast phase transition method. The room‐temperature ionic conductivity and the transfer number of the 70% salt‐SPE reaches 1.6 mS cm−1 and 0.78, respectively. Meanwhile, the ZnF2‐rich inorganic/organic hybrid solid electrolyte interface is formed, and the stable voltage window reaches 9.35 V. In consequence, the Zn||Zn symmetric cell continuously cycles over 700 hours at current density of 2 mA cm−2 and the Zn||Cu symmetric battery runs with Coulombic efficiency of >99%. The Zn||MnPBA full battery delivers a discharge specific capacity of 109 mAh g−1 at room temperature and 190 mAh g−1 at 60 °C. Meanwhile, impressive cyclic stability of 6000 cycles with capacity retention of 80% is achieved, which originates from the effectively optimized ion transport action and dendrite‐free Zn plating/stripping.

Semiconducting polymers provide a ubiquitous platform for a range of applications in molecular electronics and photovoltaics, but the ordered and disordered regions of these materials impart different optoelectronic properties. By resolving local morphology using solid-state magnetic resonance spectroscopy and modeling techniques, here, we demonstrate that the PTB7-Th donor−acceptor (D−A) copolymer and P3HT and MEH-PPV homopolymers exhibit different degrees of the shortrange order, which can be associated with the large differences in their charge carrier mobilities. The high degree of local order in PTB7-Th (84−99%) is facilitated by noncovalent interactions between D and A moieties. In contrast to this, the reduced local order in P3HT (30−44%) and MEH-PPV (39−43%) homopolymers is due to the distortions in the vicinities of backbone and side chain moieties that lead to conformationally tilted polymer chains. Combined solid-state NMR and density functional theory (DFT) modeling allows the degree of backbone torsion in these materials to be determined, and insights into packing interactions are obtained by two-dimensional (2D) 1 H− 1 H, 1 H− 13 C, and 1 H− 19 F correlation NMR spectroscopy. In addition, the different paramagnetic species and hyperfine interactions are analyzed by EPR spectroscopy and are expected to influence the charge carrier mobilities. A detailed analysis of the local structures presented in this study helps explain the morphological anomalies and their impact on bulk charge carrier mobilities and electronic density of states, thus providing essential insights into the morphology−property relationships in polymeric organic semiconductors.
