General description

Succinonitrile has plastic crystalline nature. It is the precursor of 1,4-diaminobutane.

Application

Succinonitrile dispersed with ionic liquids entrapped in a host polymer was used to constitute gel polymer electrolytes. It was used as dopant to investigate the ionic conductivity and X-ray absorption spectroscopic results for lithium and copper salt doped succinonitrile.
