Electrical Property of Methylcellulose/Chitosan-NH4NO3-EC Plasticized Polymer Electrolyte

Article Preview

Abstract:

Polymer electrolytes blends of methylcellulose (MC)/chitosan-ammonium triflate (NH4CF3SO3) plasticized with Ethylene Carbonate (EC) were prepared by solution-casting technique. The effect on electrical property was investigated by impedance spectroscopy. Sample with 45 wt% of EC exhibit the highest room temperature conductivity of 2.16 × 10-4 Scm-1. Dielectric data were analyzed for the sample with the highest conductivity.
