It is an object to provide a high ion conductive solid electrolyte which
uses organic and inorganic complex compound having water absorption and
water resistance and to provide an electrochemical system using the high
ion conductive solid electrolyte. The high ion conductive solid
electrolyte is composed a complex compound including water that has
zirconic acid compound and polyvinyl alcohol and compound having carboxyl
group or metal salt of the compound having carboxyl group. An aqueous
solution in which zirconium salt or oxyzirconnium salt and polyvinyl
alcohol and compound having carboxyl group or metal salt of the compound
having carboxyl group are dissolved is neutralized by alkali. After
removing water used as solvent, unnecessary salts are removed from the
neutralized solution. The high ion conductive solid electrolyte is
obtained which is composed of the complex compound. Various
electrochemical systems are obtained each of which use the high ion
conductive solid electrolyte.
