Abstract:
1. An electrode comprising an electrically conductive substrate, a layer of energy accumulating redox polymer deposited onto the substrate, the redox polymer comprising a polymer metal complex with a substituted tetra-dentate Schiff's base selected from the group: poly-[Me(R, R′-Schiff-Y)], wherein Me is a transition metal; Y is a bridge group binding the atoms of Nitrogen in the Schiff base; R is an electron-donating substituent comprising a functional group (X)O—, —COO(X), where (X) is an alkali metal selected from the group consisting of Li and Na; R′ is Hydrogen or Halogen; and wherein the polymer metal complex has the following structure: with n selected from the range from 2 to 50000.
