A polymer nanofibrous matrix suitable for polymer electrolytes in high‐performance lithium polymer batteries is presented. The poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVdF) nanofibrous membrane (see Figure) was produced by electrospinning, which is briefly outlined. The characterization of the membrane—its porosity, network structure, mechanical strength, and electrochemical properties—is described.
