TY - JOUR AU - Lerner, Michael M. AB - The formation and stabilities of interfaces between poly[oxymethylene oligo‐(oxyethylene)] (PEM)‐salt polymer electrolytes and lithium metal or are investigated. The interface (where x in PEMxLiAn indicates the mole ratio of O/Li in the electrolyte) demonstrates behavior consistent with the formation of a solid electrolyte interface, with a stable interfacial resistance of 900 Ω cm2 at 50°C. UV‐cross‐linked films do not form a stable interface, Rint rapidly increases to greater than 105 Ω cm2. When cross‐linked samples are treated with methyl iodide, hexamethyldisilazane/trimethylchlorosilane or upon addition of the plasticizer polyethylene glycol dimethyl ether, Rint at 50°C stabilizes at approximately 2000 Ω cm2. The polymer electrolytes require a plasticizer to form a low impedance interface with .
