Polymers are increasingly finding applications in the areas of energy storage and conversion. A number of recent advances in the polymer molecular structure control thereby tuning of the polymer properties have led to these applications. This book assimilates these advances in the form of a comprehensive text which includes the synthesis and properties of a large number of polymer systems for applications in the areas of lithium batteries, photovoltaics, solar cells, etc.
