Abstract: Disclosed herein is a solid-state composite polymer electrolyte membrane including a solid-state electrolyte layer and a cured electrolyte layer disposed thereon. The solid-state electrolyte layer includes poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene), lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide, succinonitrile, and aluminum-doped lithium lanthanum zirconium oxide that is present from 50 wt % to 80 wt % based on 100 wt % of the solid-state electrolyte layer. The first cured electrolyte layer is formed by subjecting a first composition including a first initiator and a first component that includes an acrylic material, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide and succinonitrile to a first polymerization reaction. The acrylic material is selected from ethoxylated trimethylolpropane triacrylate, poly(ethylene glycol) dimethacrylate, poly(ethylene glycol) methacrylate, and combinations thereof.

Abstract: Disclosed herein is a method for manufacturing an all solid-state lithium battery, in which a lithium-substituted Nafion is dispersed in N-methylpyrrolidone in an amount ranging from 0.5 wt % to 5.0 wt % to form a lithium-substituted Nafion dispersion and an active material is dispersed in the lithium-substituted Nafion dispersion in a weight ratio of the lithium-substituted Nafion to the active material ranging from 0.05:100 to 5.00:100.

Abstract: A retractable cone net system includes a first net anchor member; a second net anchor member; and a net for stretching between the first net anchor member and the second net anchor member. The first net anchor member is configured to attach to a first cone, and the second net anchor member is configured to attach to a second cone. The second net anchor member includes a net attachment mechanism for attaching one end of the net when in use. The first net anchor member includes a net storage chamber for storing the net when not in use. The first net anchor member includes a net retraction mechanism for retracting the net into the net storage chamber of the first net anchor member when the net is not in use.

Abstract: A lithium ion conductive composite material for an all solid-state lithium battery includes a polymer blend, a lithium salt, a lithium ion conductive ceramic filler, and a plasticizer. The polymer blend includes polyacrylonitrile and a polyvinyl polymer selected from the group consisting of polyvinyl alcohol, poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene), and a combination thereof.

Abstract: A multi-leg transport system receives a transport request and determines a number of transfer locations between the origin location and the destination. The system selects a first provider to transport the user from the origin location to a transfer location and remotely monitors the position of the user as the user travels to the transfer location. In response to determining that the travel time to the transfer location is within a threshold, the system selects a second provider to transport the user from the transfer location to either the next transfer location or the destination for the transport request.

Abstract: A new approach is proposed that contemplates systems and methods to support user identity verification based on social and personal information of the user. Under the approach, customers/users are required to grant identity verifying party a degree of access to their social network information, including but not limited to, account data and social graph information on social networks. The identity verifying party then acquires information of a current or potential user's online presence in addition to other information of the user and utilizes such information to verify the user's identity in the real world and/or to assess the fraud risk of a specific financial transaction requested by the user.

Abstract: One or more embodiments contained herein disclose an adhesive for printed circuit board (PCB) applications. The improved adhesive may comprise a benzoxazine resin and a polyester plasticizer.

Abstract: A system is configured to determine aggregated social media variables that may be used for modeling. The system includes an information identifier module determining keywords and phrases. The system also includes an aggregator receiving information collected from social media applications using the keywords and phrases and determining values for social media variables from the collected information. The aggregator aggregates the social media variables based on the values and weightings of the social media variables.
