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.

The solid polymer electrolyte films consisting of polyacrylonitrile (PAN) as the host polymer, lithium triflate (LiCF3SO3) and sodium triflate (NaCF3SO3) as dopant salts were prepared by the solution cast technique. The pure PAN film was prepared as a reference. The films were characterized using a.c. impedance spectroscopy. At room temperature, the highest conductivity for the sample from the (PAN+LiCF3SO3) system and the (PAN+NaCF3SO3) system is 3.04 x 10-4 Scm-1 and 7.13 x 10-4 Scm-1, respectively. The temperature dependence of ionic conductivity for the highest conducting film from both systems follows the Arrhenius equation in the temperature range of 303 K to 353 K. The frequency dependence of ionic conductivity, , complex permittivity, *, and complex electrical modulus, M* were studied at different temperatures. The ionic conductivity and the dielectric behavior are described in terms of ion diffusion and polarization.

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.

In this study, it was aimed to prepare a series of PVdF-co-HFP based electrolytes with different LiClO4 loadings and to investigate their chemical and electrical properties in detail. For this purpose, PVdF-co-HFP based electrolytes with different LiClO4 loadings (1–20 weight %) were prepared using solution casting method. X-ray diffraction (XRD), differential scanning calorimetry, and thermogravimetric (TGA) –differential thermal and dielectric spectroscopy analysis of PVdF-co-HFP/LiClO4 were performed to characterize their structural, thermal, and dielectric properties, respectively. XRD results showed that the diffraction peaks of PVdF-co-HFP/LiClO4 electrolytes broadened and decreased with LiClO4. TGA patterns exhibited that PVdF-co-HFP/LiClO4 electrolytes with 20 wt % of LiClO4 had the lowest thermal stability and it degraded above 473 K, which is highly applicable for solid polymer electrolytes. Dielectric constant, dielectric loss, and conductivities were calculated by measuring capacitance and dielectric loss factor of PVdF-co-HFP/LiClO4 in the range from 10 mHz to 20 MHz frequencies at room temperature. In consequence, conductivities of PVdF-co-HFP/LiClO4 increased significantly with frequency for low loading of LiClO4 while they only slightly changed with higher LiClO4 addition. On the other hand, dielectric constant values of PVdF-co-HFP/LiClO4 films decreased with frequency whereas they rose with LiClO4 addition. The dielectric studies showed an increase in dielectric constant and dielectric loss with decreasing frequency. This result was attributed to high contribution of charge accumulation at the electrode–electrolyte interface. The electrolyte showed the maximum conductivity of 8 × 10−2 S/cm at room temperature.

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.

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.

Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) comprising of a blend of Poly (ethyl methacrylate) (PEMA) and Epoxidized natural rubber-50 (ENR50) as polymer host and lithium triflate (LiCF3SO3) as dopant were prepared by solution cast technique. The blend based polymer electrolytes have a fixed PEMA/ENR50 ratio of 70:30 by wt. % as at this ratio ENR-50 imparted stable mechanical properties to the otherwise fragile PEMA. The incorporation of LiCF3SO3into the blend is found to increase the conductivity of PEMA/ENR50. The highest conductivity achieved was 3.64 x 10-5Scm-1at 40wt. % LiCF3SO3. The structure of the samples was investigated by X-ray diffraction and the results show that the highest conducting sample is the most amorphous.

Solid films of pure chitosan, chitosan-LiCF3SO3, chitosan-NaCF3SO3, and chitosan-AgCF3SO3 were prepared using solution cast technique. The influence of cation size on the chitosan structure has been investigated by X-ray diffraction technique. The interaction between the alkali metal ions and the donor atoms of chitosan polymer is a strong hard-acid/hard-base interaction. It was found that the intensity of crystalline peaks of chitosan decreases with increase of cation size. The impedance analysis shows that ionic transport is high for the high amorphous system. The second semicircle in Z′′-Z′ plots and the surface plasmonic resonance (SPR) peaks in chitosan-AgCF3SO3 sample system reveal the formations of silver metal nanoparticles. It was found that the high amorphous sample exhibits the high dielectric constant and dielectric loss values. The increase of dielectric constant and dielectric loss with temperature for chitosan-salt membranes indicated an increase of charge carrier concentration.

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.
