Abstract: | Poly(methylmethacrylate) (PMMA)/poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVdF) blend based electrolyte films containing different lithium salt concentrations are prepared using solvent casting technique. The complexation has been confirmed using XRD and FTIR spectral studies. Ionic conductivity and thermal behaviour of PMMA/PVdF complexes were studied with various salt concentrations, temperature and plasticizer content. The network structure of the polymer complexes are also investigated using SEM. The maximum value of conductivity 4.2×10−3 S/cm is obtained for the PMMA(7.5)-PVdF(17.5)-LiClO4(8)-DMP(67) polymer complex at 303 K. |
