Corn Starch-Sodium Acetat Composite Material from Industrial Waste Fly Ash for Solid Electrolyte Polymer Ionic Conductivity in Supercapacitor Application

Abstract:

Solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) is a safer alternative to use than liquid electrolytes. This research focuses on the highest conductivity with fly ash filler in solid polymer electrolyte (SPE) based on corn starch, using the solution casting method. The crystallinity and interaction between fly ash and Na⁺ ions of solid polymer electrolyte were seen by X-ray Diffraction (XRD), then Fourier Transform Infra-Red (FTIR), showing a shift in functional groups due to the interaction of SiO₂ in fly ash and Na⁺ ions, and surface morphology forms was observed by Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). Ionic conductivity was analyzed by Electrochemical impedance Spectrometry (EIS). solid polymer electrolyte with fly ash showed the highest ionic conductivity 2,51 x 10^-4 S/cm, at room temperature with addition fly ash 10%. the highest conductivity result was corresponding with amorphous peak with same concetration on XRD. SPE based on corn starch with Fly ash filler has potential to be used as a solid polymer electrolyte in supercapacitors.
