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.

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.

In this study, the two systems of polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) based polymer electrolyte films have been prepared by the solution casting technique. Lithium iodide (LiI) and ethylene carbonate (EC) were used as inorganic salt and plasticizer, respectively. The highest room temperature conductivity for the plasticized system and unplasticized system is 4.42 x 10-5Scm-1and 4.37 x 10-6Scm-1, respectively. The conductivity-temperature dependence studies have been performed on these films in the temperature range of 303 K to 373 K. It can be observed that the logσversus 1000/T plots obey the Arrhenius rule and VTF rule for the plasticized film and unplasticized film, respectively [1-3]. The surface morphology of the plasticized and unplasticized films was observed by using scanning electron microscope (SEM).

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.

Polyacrylonitrile (PAN) based polymer electrolytes composed of PAN, lithium tetrafluoroborate (LiBF4), ethylene carbonate (EC) and dimethyl phthalate (DMP) were prepared by solution casting technique. The variation of conductivity with LiBF4 concentrations of the prepared films has been studied using AC impedance spectroscopy. The conductivity of the films is charge concentration dependent and the highest room temperature conductivity of 1.08 ×10-2 S cm-1 is achieved for the film with optimum composition. The thermal activated conductivity of the films obeys Arrhenius rule in the temperature range from 303 K to 353 K. The electrochemical stability of the PAN-based films has been investigated using linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) with three electrodes system. The films were found to be electrochemically stable up to 4.4 V. The reversibility of the lithium ions conduction in the polymer electrolyte films have been studied using cyclic voltammetry (CV).

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.

In this study, Poly (vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene)/Poly (ethyl methacrylate (PEMA) nanocomposite polymer electrolytes was prepared by solution casting technique. The effects of TiO2 nanofiller on the structural, thermal and conductivity characteristics were examined using x-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, differential scanning calorimetry and impedance spectroscopy. The crystallinity and conductivity of the salted system are found to increase with the addition of TiO2. The system containing 5 wt % of TiO2 exhibited the highest room temperature conductivity of 1.32 × 10-3 S cm-1.

A starch-resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF)-lithium triflate (LiTf) based biodegradable polymer electrolyte membrane was synthesized via the solution casting technique. The formation of RF crosslinks in the starch matrix was found to repress the starch’s crystallinity as indicated by the XRD data. Incorporation of the RF plasticizer improved the conductivity greatly, with the highest room-temperature conductivity recorded being 4.29 × 10−4 S cm−1 achieved by the starch:LiTf:RF (20 wt.%:20 wt.%:60 wt.%) composition. The enhancement in ionic conductivity was an implication of the increase in the polymeric amorphous region concurrent with the suppression of the starch’s crystallinity. Chemical complexation between the plasticizer, starch, and lithium salt components in the electrolyte was confirmed by FTIR spectra.
