This invention pertains to the composition and method for fabricating
nano-tube composite polymer electrolyte. The composite polymer
electrolyte is made by blending suitable amount of highly dispersed,
nano-tube, such as titanium dioxide (TiO.sub.2), with highly amorphous
polymer electrolyte, such as polyethylene oxide. The hollow nano-tube
structure facilitates salt dissociation, serves temporarily storage for
lithium ions, creates new conducting mechanism and improves the
conductivity thereof. The subsequent thermal treatment and high electric
field arrange the nano-tubes in order for increase of the dielectric
constant thereof, which increased ion mobility at room temperature. The
mechanical properties are also improved due to the physical cross-linking
of the nano-tubes, suitable for industrial processing.
