The invention relates to a reinforced thermosetting composite, characterized in that it comprises sand, inert powder, thermosetting resin and fibers, a novel composition that enables advances to be made in relation to the prior art, allowing planners and constructors to implement their projects with alternatives that are more advanced and affordable than existing ones. This composite is totally impermeable, with a lower specific weight than cement concrete, and high compressive strength and tensile strength. It does not oxidize like iron or steel and is highly durable in terms of weather-resistance. Furthermore, important waste is used in the formulation of the composite, but no water, and the composite is sustainable as it can be recycled to produce new parts, and as such is eco-friendly.

New homopolymers and copolymers of diester-based polymers have been synthesized. When these polymers are combined with electrolyte salts, such polymer electrolytes have shown excellent electrochemical oxidation stability in lithium battery cells. Their stability along with their excellent ionic conductivities make them especially suitable as electrolytes in high energy density lithium battery cells.
