P(CN)3 reactions with lithium dicynamide producing metalated carbon phosphonitride extended solids
A lithiated carbon phosphonitride material is made by, for example, reacting P(CN) 3 with LiN(CN) 2 in solution (for example, dimethoxyethane or pyridine), then drying the solution to obtain the product. The material is a thermoset that is stable to over 400° C. and exhibits up to 10 −3 S·cm2 of Li + conductivity.
