Polymer electrolytes systems compose of (PEO+KI+I2) and (PEO+RbI+I2) with different concentration, and a fixed amount of ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC) over temperatures range 293-343 K prepared by solution cast method. The conductivity and dielectric constant of the gel electrolytes were studied. The conductivity of the electrolytes Ss & Hs increases steadily with increased concentration of salt KI and RbI. The higher value of conductivity of (4.7 10-3 @ RT S.cm-1) for S5 electrolyte which contains (KI 50%). Whereas the maximum amount of conductivity of (5.4 10³ @RT S.cm⁻ˡ) for H5 electrolyte which contains (RbI 50%) the ionic conductivity depends on the ionic radii of the migrating species (cation K⁺, Rb⁺) effect on it. As the temperature increase, the number of free ions also increases, thus increases the diffusion of ions through their free volume of the polymer. The dielectric constant decrease at higher frequencies due to the inability of dipoles to align quickly with the change of applied field. The dielectric constant proportional positively with variation temperature causes an increase in the dielectric constant. The higher the value of (εr), the better is the electrical conductivity.

The Fourier Transform

Solid polymer electrolytes based on chitosan NaCF3SO3 have been prepared by the solution cast technique. X-ray diffraction shows that the crystalline phase of the pure chitosan membrane has been partially disrupted. The fourier transform infrared (FTIR) results reveal the complexation between the chitosan polymer and the sodium triflate (NaTf) salt. The dielectric constant and DC conductivity follow the same trend with NaTf salt concentration. The increase in dielectric constant at different temperatures indicates an increase in DC conductivity. The ion conduction mechanism follows the Arrhenius behavior. The dependence of DC conductivity on both temperature and dielectric constant (σdc(T,ε′)=σ0e−Ea/KBT) is also demonstrated.

Polymer composite of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), Aluminum Iodide have been prepared by solution cast method for different doping concentrations. The absorption of pure and doped films have been investigated in the visible and ultraviolent wavelength regions. It was found that the optical absorption is due to direct and indirect transitions, and the optical energy gaps values shifted to lower energies on Aluminum Iodide doping concentration for all transitions, while the band edge width of the tail localized states increase with increasing Aluminum Iodide concentration. The band gap of all films shows to be decrease after thermal treatment. The optical constants refractive index n, extinction coefficient k, the complex dielectric constant have been also calculated. The dielectric constant increased in the composite samples as compared with the pure PVA sample prepared by the same method.

Cast Technique

In this work, the film contained a mixture of PMMA, salt, and plasticizers are studied. PMMA as a host polymer, ammonium trifluoromethane sulphonate or ammonium triflate (NH4CF3SO3) as a doping salt and ethylene carbonate (EC) as a plasticizer is used in this present study. PMMA salt complexes system and plasticized PMMA salt complexes system are prepared by solution cast technique at room temperature. FTIR is used to study the interaction between polymer and salt, and between polymer–salt and plasticizer. The carbonyl group C=O asymmetric stretching mode observed at 1721 cm-1 is broadened and shifted to lower wavenumber when ammonium triflate was added into PMMA. The broadening, shifting and reduction in wavenumbers of FTIR spectra show that the complexation has occurred between the polymer and salt. EIS is performed to measure the electrical conductivity of the polymer–salt system prepared at ambient temperature. The electrical conductivity of film containing 1.0 g of PMMA–35 wt% NH4CF3SO3–16 wt% EC exhibit the highest electrical conductivity with the value of 2.461 x 10-4 S/cm2. XRD is carried out to study the pattern of pure PMMA, PMMA–NH4CF3SO3 and PMMA–NH4CF3SO3–EC. The XRD analysis shows the addition of plasticizer to the polymer–salt system increase the amorphousness of the polymer electrolytes hence increases in conductivity.

Poly(vinyl) chloride (PVC)-NH4I-EC films have been prepared by solution cast technique. The sample containing 30 wt. % NH4I exhibited highest room temperature conductivity of 4.60 × 10-7S cm-1. The conductivity increased to 1.08 × 10-6Scm-1when 15 wt. % of ethylene carbonate (EC) was added to 70 wt. % PVC - 30 wt. % NH4I. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) showed evidence of polymer–salt complexation while DSC showed increase in glass transition temperature (Tg) of PVC -NH4I - EC polymer electrolytes. The conductivity behavior of the studied system could be accounted by the changes in Tgvalues.

The present work investigated the effect of carboxy methylcellulose (CMC) solid polymer electrolytes doped with ammonium carbonate (AC) prepared from solution cast technique. The CMC-AC solid polymer electrolytes system has been analyzed using EIS to understand its conductivity and dielectric behavior at temperature range of 303 K to 363 K. The highest conductivity achieved at room temperature (303K) is 7.71 x 10-6S cm-1doped with 7wt.% of AC and all samples follows Arrhenius behaviour. The dielectric constant (εr) value was found to be dependent of ionic dopant.

Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) with poly (vinyl) chloride (PVC) doped with a fixed amount of ammonium trifluoro methane sulfonate (NH4Tf) and with varying concentrations of ionic liquid butyltrimethyl ammonium bis (trifluoromethyl sulfonyl) imide (Bu3MeNTf2N) were synthesised via solution cast technique. PVC-NH4Tf-Bu3MeNTf2N-based SPEs with 15 weight % Bu3MeNTf2N exhibit conductivity of 1.56 x 10-4 Scm-1 at room temperature. The ionic conductivity is attributed to the dissociation of NH4Tf facilitated by Bu3MeNTf2N. Results of XRD indicate that the most amorphous film has the highest conductivity and this is corroborated by the results of DSC. FTIR spectra revealed that Bu3MeNTf2N has weak interaction suggesting that it acts mainly as a lubricant to facilitate polymer segmental motion.

Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) are the best choice to replace liquid electrolytes in supercapacitors, fuel cells, solar cells and batteries. The main challenge in this filed is the ionic conductivity and thermal stability of SPEs which is still not up to mark, therefore more investigations are needed to address these issues. In this study, PVA/salt based SPEs was fabricated using both solution cast and electro-spinning methods to probe the effect of different salts such as (NaCl, KCl and KI) and their concentrations on the ionic conductivity. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) x and Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR) have been employed to study the morphology as well as the different functional groups of SPEs, respectively. It was noted that small addition of NaCl, KCl and KI salts in SPEs dramatically increased the ionic conductivity to 5.95×10−6, 5.31×10−6 and 4.83×10−6 S/cm, respectively. Importantly, the SPEs obtained with NaCl via electro-spinning have higher ionic conductivity (5.95×10−6 S/cm) than their casted SPEs (1.87×10−6 S/cm). Thermal stability was also studied at two different temperatures i.e. 80 °C and 100 °C. The weight loss percentage of electrospun SPEs have zero percent weight loss than the solution based SPEs. The combined results clearly indicated that the nature of salt, concentration and fabrication process play a vital role in the ionic conductivity. Also, the NaCl salt with low molecular weight at low concentrations shows an enhanced ionic conductivity.

This paper reports on the conductivity-temperature studies of gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) based on 49% poly (methyl methacrylate) grafted-natural rubber (MG49) doped with lithium triflate salt (LiTf) and plasticized with ethylene carbonate (EC). The GPE films are prepared by solution cast technique. The X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies reveal the polymer electrolyte systems are amorphous. AC impedance spectroscopy is carried out in the temperature range between 303 and 373 K. The magnitudes of conductivity observed are strongly dependent on salt concentration and temperature. The high ionic conductivity at elevated temperatures of GPE is attributed to the high ionic mobility of charge carriers. The ionic migration is seen to follow the VTF behavior and approaches to Arrhenius rule at high and low at temperature. Ionic conductivity relaxation appears to be a characteristic of the ionic polarization and the modulus formalism studies confirmed the GPEs in the present investigation are ionic conductors.
