Abstract

Abstract Ionically conductive material consisting essentially of a salt diluted in a liquid aprotic solvent. The salt is represented by one of the following formulas: M [RFSO2NSO2R'F] (I) M [RFSO2NCOR'F] (II) M [RFCONCOR'F] (III) <IMAGE> (IV) where M is an alkaline or alkaline earth metal, a transition metal or a rare earth metal.
