The event highlights recent developments in charge transport in materials, from fundamental understanding to applications, fostering knowledge exchange between academia and industry.

The conference combines two traditional scientific meetings, the 86th edition of the Prague Meeting on Macromolecules (PMM) and the 16th edition of the International Symposium on Systems with Fast Ionic Transport (ISSFIT).

Topics

• Materials for energy conversion and storage applications, including but not limited to:
         – Polymer and ionic liquid-based electrolytes
         – Solid-state and all-solid-state materials
         – Conductive polymers
• Conduction mechanisms in bulk and at surfaces/interfaces of materials – experimental and theoretical approaches
• Synthetic and analytical methods for systems with fast ionic transport
• Special focus on new trends in energy storage, sustainable materials such as post-lithium, fluorine-free or aqueous-based batteries
