In the present research, [MG49-LiClO4]:[HNO3-THF/TiO2-SiO2] and [MG49-LiClO4]:[ClHNO2-THF/TiO2-SiO2] polymer electrolytes were first prepared through simple stepwise in situ techniques: sol-gel technique and solution-cast technique. [MG49-LiClO4]:[HNO3-THF/TiO2-SiO2] and [MG49-LiClO4]:[ClHNO2-THF/TiO2-SiO2] polymer electrolytes were then characterized through different experimental techniques. [MG49-LiClO4]:[HNO3-THF/TiO2-SiO2] and [MG49-LiClO4]:[ClHNO2-THF/TiO2-SiO2] polymer electrolytes had exhibited significant structural changes upon different salt concentrations. In the present investigation, [MG49-LiClO4]:[HNO3-THF/TiO2-SiO2] and [MG49-LiClO4]:[ClHNO2-THF/TiO2-SiO2] polymer electrolytes had attained maximum ionic conductivities (σ~10-7 S/cm at ambient temperature; 10−4 S/cm at 100°C) upon 25 wt.% salt insertion. [MG49-LiClO4]:[HNO3-THF/TiO2-SiO2] and [MG49-LiClO4]:[ClHNO2-THF/TiO2-SiO2] polymer electrolytes had exhibited distinct conduction mechanisms in similar experimental configuration. [MG49-LiClO4]:[HNO3-THF/TiO2-SiO2] and [MG49-LiClO4]:[ClHNO2-THF/TiO2-SiO2] polymer electrolytes had exhibited different stability characteristics over certain operational condition.

Y-type hexagonal ferrite (CaBaCo2Ga[Formula: see text]Fe[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text]) was synthesized by sol–gel technique. The ferrite–polymer composites (1−x)CaBaCo2Ga[Formula: see text]Fe[Formula: see text]O[Formula: see text]+(x)polyaniline (x=0.25, 0.50, 0.75, 1) namely PF1, PF2, PF3 and polyaniline (PANI) were synthesized by in situ polymerization. The synthesized samples were characterized by XRD, SEM, electrical and dielectric measurements, optical and magnetic studies. XRD pattern reveals a broad peak of polyaniline which is an indication of amorphous nature of PANI. Room-temperature resistivity increases from 2.14 × 101 [Formula: see text]cm to 2.78 × 10[Formula: see text]cm as ferrite content increases due to resistive behavior of the ferrite particles dispersed in the PANI matrix. The value of dielectric constant decreases at fixed frequency with increasing concentration of ferrite filler which is predominantly due to exchange of electrons between Fe[Formula: see text] and Fe[Formula: see text] ions that ultimately results in enhancement of electric polarization and conductivity. The optical bandgap increases with increasing amount of ferrite in the composites. The saturation magnetization and remanence increase with the increase of ferrite filler amount in PANI matrix whereas coercivity decreases. The decrease in coercivity and increase in saturation magnetization are related to Brown’s relation. The present nanocomposite samples may be the best candidates for electromagnetic shielding.

AbstractThin films of PZT were deposited onto platinized and bare single crystal NaCl using spin coating and sol-gel precursors. These films were then analyzed using in situ heating in a transmission electron microscope. The results of in situ heating are compared with those of an ex situ heat treatment in a standard furnace, mimicking the heat treatment given to entire wafers of these materials for use in MEMS and ferroelectric applications. Films are shown to transform from amorphous to nanocrystalline over the course of days when held at room temperature. While chemical variations are found between films crystallized in ambient conditions and films crystallized in the vacuum conditions of the microscope, the resulting crystal structures appear to be insensitive to these differences. Significant changes in crystal structure are found at 500°C, primarily the change from largely amorphous to the beginnings of clearly crystalline films. Crystallization does occur over the course of weeks at room temperature in these films. Structural changes are more modest in these films when heated in the TEM then those observed on actual wafers. The presence of Pt significantly influences both the resulting structure and morphology in both in situ and ex situ heated films. Without Pt present, the films appear to form small, 10 nm grains consisting of both cubic and tetragonal phases, whereas in the case of the Pt larger, 100 nm grains of a tetragonal phase are formed.

Novel micro-composites from Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and silica were prepared using sol-gel technique. Different catalysts were used for the in-situ generation of silica network from tetraethylorthosilicate (TEOS) in the PVC matrix. Thin transparent films containing various proportions of silica in PVC were cast by the solvent elution technique. Mechanical properties of these films were studied. The results showed an increase in the value of Young's modulus and strain at rupture by the addition of small amount of silica in PVC. However, the stress at yields point and stress at rupture decreased with the addition of silica contents. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM-EDAX) studies were also performed on these samples.

The synthesize of solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) based on polyethylene oxide (PEO), NaClO4 and nano-SiO2 was carried out by solution cast technique. Nano-SiO2 was synthesized from sugarcane bagasse using sol-gel method. FTIR analysis was carried out to investigate the bonding between nano-SiO2 and PEO/NaClO4. The morphology of the SPE was characterized using SEM. XRD and DSC analysis showed that SPE crystallinity decreased as nano-SiO2 concentration was increased. Mechanical analyses were conducted to characterize the SPE tensile strength and elongation at break. EIS analysis was conducted to measure SPE ionic conductivity. The PEO/NaClO4 SPE with the addition of 5% nano-SiO2 from sugarcane bagasse at 60 °C produced SPE with the highest ionic conductivity, 1.18 × 10−6 S/cm. It was concluded that the addition of nano-SiO2 increased ionic conductivity and interface stability at the solid polymer electrolyte-PEO/NaClO4.

This paper presents on ionic conductivity of MG30-PEMA blend solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) prepared by solution cast technique. The analysis has shown that conductivity increases with the increasing salt composition. It is observed via x-ray diffraction analysis that the crystallinity of the sample decreased with the amount of salt composition as expected It is also observed that the dielectric value increases with increasing amount of LiCF3SO3 in the sample. Surface morphology revealed that ion aggregation occurred after optimum conductivity which has lowered the conductivity.

Methyl-grafted natural rubber (MG30) was treated with N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine (6PPD) to enhance it anti-aging properties. The treated MG30 was used as polymer electrolyte by incorporating lithium trifluoromethane sulfonate (LiTF) through solution-cast technique. The impedance behavior of the sample has been carried out by analyzing the dielectric permittivity, dissipation factor, dielectric modulus and ionic conductivity as a function of temperature at different frequencies through impedance spectroscopy. Keywords: Methyl-grafted natural rubber, polymer electrolyte, N-(1,3-dimethylbutyl)-N'-phenyl-p-phenylenediamine, ionic conductivity, dielectric.
