Patent ID: 8080327

Claim:
An electrical storage device utilizing a three-ring symmetrical pyrazine-based cyanoazacarbons or polymers derived from three-ring symmetrical pyrazine-based cyanoazacarbons, the device comprising: an ion permeable membrane that allows ionic conductivity; a cathode compartment which is functionally attached to the cathode side of the ion permeable membrane and contains a mixture of pyrazine-based cyanoazacarbons, solvent, and positive ions of pyrazine-based cyanoazacarbons; an anode compartment which is functionally attached to the anode side of the ion permeable membrane and contains a mixture of pyrazine-based cyanoazacarbons, solvent, and negative ions of pyrazine-based cyanoazacarbons; a cathode which is electrically connected to the cathode compartment; and an anode which is electrically connected to the anode compartment; both compartments contain a supporting electrolyte such as tetraethylammonium tetrafluoroborate.
