Conduction Properties of PTMSPMA-PEO and its Application as Polymer Electrolyte in LiFePO4 Batteries

Article Preview

Abstract:

The conduction properties of polymer composite PTMSPMA-PEO as electrolyte in lithium-ion batteries has been investigated. The gel polymer of PTMSPMA was synthesized by sol-gel method using 3-(Trimethoxysilyl)-propyl-methacrylate as monomer. The Composite of PTMSPMA-PEO with various composition (50:50, 60:40, 80:20; wt%) was made by solution method. The polymer electrolyte was composed of LiClO4 salt dissolved in propylene carbonate and mixed with PTMSPMA-PEO. The ionic conduction of polymer electrolyte was characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy. The battery performance of polymer electrolyte was estimated with coin cell, where LiFePO4 was used as cathode and graphite was use as anode. The high ionic conductivity of 6.67 x10-3 S/cm has been observed for the composition of PTMSPMA : PEO 60:40 (wt%) in room temperature. The performance of cell battery was investigated by charge-discharge using constant current 0,1 mA/cm2. The operational voltage of cell battery is around 1 V until 2.2 Volt with Columbic efficiency around 60%.
