A hot-press technique has been used for the formation of the polymeric membranes in place of the usual solution cast method. The composition （80 PEO：20 KI） was identified as the highest conducting polymer electrolyte on the basis of compositional dependent conductivity studies of PEO：KI films. A conductivity enhancement of more than two orders of magnitude from that of the pure PEO was achieved. Materials characterization and ion transport mechanism were explained by using various experimental techniques.展开更多

Some characterization techniques of FIC glasses are presented. The experimental methods for determination of some ion transport parameters viz ionic conductivity （σ）, ionic mobility （μ）, mobile ion concentration （n）, ionic drift velocity （Vd）, ionic transference number （tion） and activation energies of FIC glasses are explained. The solid state battery fabrication by using some FIC glasses is also reported.展开更多

The polymeric blending was done using a solvent- free hot-press method. Two orders of conductivity enhancement （σca. 1.07× 10^-5 S·cm^-1） have been achieved with 3 wt% of PVP （i.e. the composition： [97（75PEO：25NaPO3） ＋ 3PVP]）, from that of the pure host： （75PEO：25NaPO3）. The conductivity enhancement in PEO-PVP blended solid polymeric membranes have been explained by the ionic conductivity, ionic mobility and mobile ion concentration measurements. Materials characterization and polymer-salt complexation were done with the help of X-ray diffraction （XRD）, scanning electron microscopy （SEM）, differential scanning calorimetry （DSC） and thermo gravimetric analysis （TGA） studies. The temperature dependent conductivity studies have also been done to compute the activation energy （Ea） values from lgσ-1/TArrhenius plots. A solid state polymeric battery was fabricated by using optimum conducting composition of solid polymer electrolyte （SPE OCC）, and some important cell parameters were also calculated from the discharge profile of the cell.展开更多
