Transport, structural and thermal studies on nanocomposite polymer blend electrolytes for Li-ion battery applications

Synthesis of Bendable Plasticized Nanocomposite Polymer Electrolyte Using Poly(Acrylonitrile)/Poly (Methyl Methacrylate) Polymer Blends

“…Presence of aggregation of the filler in the nanocomposites was also confirmed from the SEM images. This result is in close agreement with the earlier reports based on the PVAc-PVdF-co-HFP-BaTiO 3 [18,19] and TiO 2 incorporated PMMA/PEGDA blend composite electrolyte system [20].…”

Ionic conductivity and transport properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene)-based solid polymer electrolytes

“…The diffractogram of pure PVdF-HFP, as shown in Figure 1, revealed two relatively strong crystalline peaks at 2θ = 18.7 • and 20.4 • and two more broad peaks with very weak intensities at 2θ = 26.3 • and 36.7 • . These peaks indicate the semicrystalline nature of pure PVdF-HFP [18,19]. However, it was observed [ Figure 1 (c) -(g)] that the peaks of the crystalline part of pure PVdF-HFP disappeared and a new broadened peak with slightly reduced intensity was observed around 2θ = 20 • for the polymer-salt complexes.…”

Effects of ceramic filler in poly(vinyl chloride)/poly(ethyl methacrylate) based polymer blend electrolytes

“…Hence, ceramic plays a dual role, i.e. enhancement of ionic conductivity up to a particular concentration, above which it acts as the hindering agent to conductivity [15]. From Table 1, it is seen that the addition of inorganic fillers leads to an increase in the ambient temperature conductivity up to 15 wt% TiO 2 , and then the ionic conductivity decreases with increasing concentration of ceramic fillers.…”
