Dissertation thesis is focused on study of gel polymer electrolytes for electrochemical power sources, but also for other application. The electrical, electrochemical, mechanical and optical properties of gel electrolyte samples were measured in this work. The main goal was to prepare samples with high specific conductivity and with largest possible potential windows. Thermal stability of some samples was also monitored using thermogravimetric analyzes. The optimization of the chemical composition, quantities and ratios of individual chemicals has been made. Comparison of thermal polymerization and UV polymerization was performed. In the first part of the work, aprotic solvents and their mixtures in combination with lithium and sodium salts and one ammonium salt were investigated. Another subject of research was various crosslinking agents with methacrylate-based monomers. The second part of the work investigated the effect of ionic liquids, phosphor base flame retardants and nanoparticles as additives to gel electrolytes. In the last part of the work, the influence of the magnetic and electric field on the polymerization of gel electrolytes containing nanoparticles and selected copolymers was studied. Finally, a Li-ion cell with a graphite anode, LiFePO4 cathode and selected gel electrolyte was assembled.
