Abstract
Abstract A reversible electrochemical cell uses as electrode-active material a polymer of formula: (R 1 and R 2 hydrogen, alkyl or alkoxy, m is 2 or more). The polymer is obtained by first forming a polymeric sulphonium salt of the general formula: (R 1 and R 2 as defined, R 3 and R 4 C 1-20 hydrocarbon, X a counter ion, and n ≥ m ≥ 2) and subjecting the polymeric sulphonium salt to decomposition treatment in an inert atmosphere.
