Corn starch (CS) – sodium chloride (NaCl) based polymer electrolytes were prepared by solution casting technique. At room temperature, CS-NaCl film with ratio of 70 wt. % - 30 wt. % demonstrates the highest ionic conductivity in the range of (1.72 ± 0.12) x10-5 Scm-1. Temperature-dependence ionic conductivity study follows Arrhenius model and using related plot, the activation energy for highest conducting composition is 0.16eV. The transport number measurement studies confirmed that the ionic conductivity of this polymer electrolyte is due to ions. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) analysis proved the interaction between CS and NaCl.

Nanocomposite solid polymer electrolytes comprise of PMMA (poly methyl methacrylate), PVP (poly vinyl pyrolidone), MSA (methanesulfonic acid) and TiO2 as nanofiller were prepared by solution casting technique at different compositions. Sample with 1 mol% incorporated TiO2 has shown maximum conductivity and its value was found as 2.82 ×10-5 S/cm. The value of conductivity has been enhanced to about 31% upon the addition of nanofiller. The relaxation time for all the prepared composites as well as for the composite having maximum conductivity at various isotherms have been calculated from the loss tangent plot. The frequency and temperature dependence of dielectric constant and dielectric loss nanocomposite solid polymer electrolytes have also been studied. The modulus analysis confirms the non-Debye type formalism in the prepared composites.

In this critical review chapter, the authors explain the development of composite films of Barium Titanate (BaTiO3) and Poly (methyl methacrylate) prepared by solution casting technique. Different weight percentage composition of BaTiO3 has been selected to find out the best optimization condition for further investigation and correlate the results. The structural properties have been carried out at room temperature using XRD. Efforts have been made to correlate the results with investigated XRD results of pure BaTiO3 and its composites as observed by other workers at room temperature. The flow of experimental work and microscopic images are explained.

Sodium ion conducting gel polymer electrolyte (GPE) films consisting of polyvinylidenefluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene (PVdF-HFP) as a polymer host were prepared using the solution casting technique. Sodium trifluoromethane-sulfonate (NaCF3SO3) was used as an ionic salt and the mixture of ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC) as the solvent plasticizer. The GPE films were found to be stable up to temperature of 145 °C as shown by TGA analysis. The AC impedance study show that the optimum conductivity of 2.50 x 10-3 S cm-1 at room temperature is achieved for the film containing 20 wt.% of NaCF3SO3 salt. The temperature dependence of conductivity obeys VTF relation in the temperature range of 303 K to 373 K.

Films of methyl cellulose (MC) /chitosan blends were prepared via solution casting technique and their properties with different amount of ammonium trilate, NH4CF3SO3 were compared. Measurements of conductivity as a function of frequency at room temperature on these films were carried out using HIOKI 3532-50 LCR Hi-Tester where the frequency was set between 50 Hz to 1 MHz. Samples having 40 wt% of NH4CF3SO3 exhibit the highest room temperature conductivity of (4.99±4.18) x 10-6 Scm-1. Dielectric data were analyzed using complex permittivity and complex electrical modulus for the sample with the highest ionic conductivity.

In an effort to improve the electrical properties of the electroactive Poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene) (PVdF-HFP), we introduced a novel and simple approach to synthesize PVDF-HFP composite films by incorporating ultrahigh dilutions of two homeopathic medicines Ferrum metallicum (FM) and Zincum oxidatum (ZO) in different potencies. The homeo-PVDF-composite films (HPCF) were synthesized by simple solution casting technique. XRD, FESEM, FTIR studies were performed to check the presence of nanoparticles in the film. The electrical properties of the HPCF samples get enhanced significantly due to the incorporation of the medicines and the effect increases with the increase in potency of the medicines.

A preliminary investigation of polymer electrolyte based on hexanoyl chitosan, lithium perchlorate (LiClO4) and various filler additives are described in this paper. Hexanoyl chitosan-based nanocomposite polymer electrolytes were prepared using solution casting technique. The effect of filler addition and type of filler on the electrical properties of the prepared electrolyte system was investigated by impedance spectroscopy (IS). The maximum conductivity of 3.06 × 10-4 S cm-1 and 1.96 × 10-4 S cm-1 were achieved for the hexanoyl chitosan-LiClO4-TiO2 and hexanoyl chitosan-LiClO4-SiO2 electrolyte system, respectively. The variations in conductivity observed were discussed quantitatively using the Rice and Roth model from which the concentration of free ions and their mobility were calculated.

This paper focuses on the dielectric constant (ε′), dielectric loss factor (ε″) and frequency dependent conductivity (σac) properties of newly prepared poly(vinylalcohol) (PVA) chitosan (CS) composite films incorporated with different concentrations of LiClO 4. The composite films were prepared using solution casting technique. The complexation between salt and polymer host is confirmed by FT Raman and UV-Vis studies. The sample containing 20 wt.% LiClO 4 exhibits a highest ionic conductivity of 3 × 10-6 S/cm at room temperature. The dielectric properties of the composites follow non-Debye behavior.
