Ionic conductivity of the polyethylene oxide-LiClO4 (PEOnLiClO4) solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) films with an EO:Li ratio (n) of 10, 12, 15, as well as the hybrid composite solid polymer electrolyte (CSPE) films of PEOnLiClO4 containing 50 wt% of cubic-Li7La3Zr2O12 (LLZO) sub-micron sized particles, have been studied by varying Li-salt content in the films. The complex AC dielectric permittivity and conductivity data obtained from electrical impedance measurements were fitted using a generalized power-law, including the effects of electrode polarization applied at low AC frequencies to obtain various relaxation times. In addition to increased mechanical and thermal robustness, the CSPE films show higher values of ionic conductivity, >10−4 S/cm at room temperature compared to those of SPE films with n = 12 and 15. On the contrary, the ionic conductivity of CSPE with n = 10 decreases by a factor of three compared to the corresponding SPE film due to increased polymer structural reorientation and Li-ion pairing effects. The Vogel–Tammann–Fulcher behavior of the temperature-dependent conductivity data indicates a close correlation between the ionic conductivity and polymer segmental relaxation. The PEO12LiClO4-LLZO film shows the lowest activation energy of ~0.05 eV.

The solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) composed of Poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) with sodium trifluoromethanesulfonate (NaCF3SO3) salt has been prepared by solution casting technique. The conductivity and dielectric of the solid polymer electrolyte systems were studied within the broad frequency range of 50 Hz–1 MHz and within a temperature range of 30 ˚C to 100 ˚C. The samples were prepared by various salt concentrations ranging from 2 wt% to 22 wt%. The sample containing 18 wt% of NaCF3SO3 salt exhibit the highest ionic conductivity of 1.091 x 10-5 Scm-1 at 30 ˚C. The conductivity of the SPEs has been found to depend on the salt concentration that was added to the sample. When higher salt concentration was added, ionic conductivity decreased due to the association of ions. The temperature of conductivity from 30 ˚C to 100 ˚C of SPEs was found to obey the Arrhenius rule. The dielectric permittivity decreased rapidly towards high frequencies due to the electrode polarization effects.

Abstract Solid-state sodium ion batteries are frequently referred to as the most promising technology for future energy storage applications. However, developing a solid electrolyte with high ionic conductivity and a wide electrochemical stability window, remains a major challenge. Although solid-polymer electrolytes have attracted great interest due to their low cost, low density and very good processability, they generally have significantly lower ionic conductivity and poor mechanical strength. Here, we report on the development of a low-cost solid polymer electrolyte comprised of poly(ethylene oxide), poly(vinylpyrrolidone) and sodium hexafluorophosphate, mixed with indium arsenide nanowires. We show that the addition of 1.0 percent by weight of nanowires increases the sodium ion conductivity in the polymer to 1.50 × 10-4 Scm−1 at 40° C. This is the highest reported conductivity for any solid polymer electrolyte to date. In order to explain this remarkable characteristic, we propose a new transport model where sodium ions hop between close-spaced defect sites present on the surface of the nanowires, forming an effective complex conductive percolation network. Our work represents a significant advance in the development of novel solid polymer electrolytes with embedded ultrafast 1D percolation networks for next generations of low-cost, high-performance batteries with excellent energy storage capabilities.
