Abstract

Nanocomposite polymer electrolyte (NCPE) films based on a blend of two polymers poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) complexed with sodium perchlorate (NaClO4) salt and Nano-filler titanium dioxide (TiO2) (i.e., (80 wt% PEO/20 wt% PVDF) + 7.5 wt% NaClO4 + x wt% TiO2 where x = 3, 6, 9, 12, 15, and 18) were prepared and characterized as potential candidates for battery applications. Electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) has been employed between the frequencies 10 Hz and 4 MHz to investigate electrical, dielectric and electric modulus properties of the prepared NCPE films. Effect of TiO2 Nano-filler concentration on the structural, ionic conductivity, and dielectric relaxation has been studied. The AC conductivity of the NCPE films at high frequencies obeys Jonscher’s power law. The values of DC ionic conductivity calculated by fitting the AC conductivity spectra to the best fit of Joncher’s power law are consistent with the values of DC ionic conductivity calculated from the bulk resistance (Rb) of the NCPE films. The ionic conductivity that depends on temperature follows the Arrhenius rule between the temperatures 298 and 328 K. The maximum ionic conductivity at ambient temperature 8.75 × 10–5 S/cm was obtained for (80 wt% PEO/20 wt% PVDF) + 7.5wt% NaClO4 + 15 wt% TiO2 NCPE film and it is attributed to the decrease in crystallinity. Using Wagner’s polarization technique ionic transport numbers of various NCPE films were measured.
