ABSTRACT:
A mesomorphic compound having an ionic conductivity is used as an electrolyte for a secondary battery, etc. The mesomorphic compound has a partial structure which includes (a) a mesomorphic mesogen group and (b) two divalent groups. Each of the two divalent groups is directly connected to the mesogen group, and each of the two divalent groups is represented by the following formula: (OCH2CH2)xor (OCH2CH(CH3))yin which x and y are respectively an integer of 3 to 25. The mesomorphic compound may be a polymeric mesomorphic compound.
