(PEO+KNO3+Nano Al2O3) based Composite Polymer Electrolytes (CPE) has been prepared by using solution casting technique. In this technique, Poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) and KNO3salt were dissolved separately in methanol and they were mixed together. Nano alumina (Al2O3) (particle size ~10nm) was doped to mixed solution and stirred for 24hrs. X-ray diffraction (XRD) technique has been obtained to determine complexation of salt and polymer in composite polymer electrolytes. Ionic and electronic transference numbers of these composite polymer electrolytes has been calculated by using Wagner’s polarization technique. The DC Conductivity of these composite polymer electrolytes has been evaluated in the temperature range of 303-373 K.

Composite polymer electrolytes (CPEs) comprised of hexanoyl chitosan-polystyrene-LiCF3SO3-TiO2 were prepared by solution casting technique. The TiO2 fillers were treated with 4% sulphuric acid (H2SO4) aqueous solution. The effect of treated TiO2 on the structural and electrical behaviour of the prepared electrolyte systems was investigated by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and impedance spectroscopy, respectively. Addition of TiO2 decreases the crystallinity of the electrolytes. Ac conductivity was calculated from σ(ω) = εoεrωtanδ. It is found that at all frequencies, σ(ω) increases with increasing temperature. Dielectric constant decreases with increasing frequency and increases with increasing temperature.

Composite polymer electrolytes based on poly (vinilydene fluoride-co-hexafluoro propylene) as polymer host, zinc triflate as dopant salt and ZrO2 as nanofiller were prepared by solution casting technique using N,N dimethylformamide (DMF) as solvent. The loading of the ZrO2 nanofiller carried out for the optimized composition shows an increasing trend of electrical conductivity from 10-11 to 10-5 Scm-1 at 298 K. The effective structural complexation of the polymer electrolyte system and influence of nanofiller were also analyzed by means of Fourier transform infrared spectral analysis. The detailed impacts on the degree of crystallinity were investigated by differential scanning calorimetric analysis. The electrochemical stability of the optimized composition with 7 wt% ZrO2 loading was found to exist up to 2.6 V.

The solid membranes having different ratios of poly-vinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium perchlorate (NaClO4) and lithium perchlorate (LiClO4) were prepared using solution casting technique. The mixed-ion composite polymer electrolytes were characterized by X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) and conductivity measurement investigations. The XRD study confirms the amorphous nature of the mixed-ion composite polymer electrolytes. FTIR analysis has been used to characterize the structure of polymer which confirms the polymer and salt complex formation. The temperature dependent nature of ionic conductivity of the mixed-ion composite polymer electrolytes was determined by using conductivity meter (EC-035WP ERMA Inc, made in Japan). The ionic conductivity of the electrolyte was found in the range of 10-3 - 10-4 S/cm at room temperature.

Abstract A Monte Carlo (MC) model to incorporate the effect of Al2O3 with different particle sizes in enhancing the ionic conductivity of composite polymer electrolytes consisting of polyethylene oxide (PEO), lithium trifluoromethanesulfonate (LiCF3SO3), and ethylene carbonate (EC), is proposed. The simulated ionic conductivity in our MC model is validated by the results of electrochemical impedance spectroscopy, which determined the room temperature ionic conductivity of various composite electrolyte samples differing from the size of the Al2O3 prepared via the solution cast method. With the simulated current density and recurrence relation, cation transference numbers, t+si of composite polymer electrolytes were derived using the steady-state current method proposed by Bruce et al. Addition of Al2O3 (≤10 μm) in micron size greatly enhances the ionic conductivity to a magnitude of two orders, i.e., from 2.9025×10-7 S/cm to 2.970×10-5 S/cm and doubles the cation transference number from 0.230 to 0.465. However, the addition of Al2O3 (<50 nm) in nano size decreases both the ionic conductivity and the cation transference number. The smaller size of Al2O3 in the nano range is responsible for the congestion on the conducting pathways that traps some of the Li+ in PEO electrolytes.
