    Selection of best composition of Na+ ion conducting PEO-PEI blend solid polymer electrolyte based on structural, electrical, and dielectric spectroscopic analysis
    (Springer, 2020) Pritam, Arya A; Sharma, A.L.
    In this paper, we report the investigation on structural, electrical, dielectric properties, and ion dynamics of novel blend polymer electrolyte matrix (PEO-PEI) complexed with sodium hexafluorophosphate salt. All the solid polymer electrolyte films have been synthesized via solution cast method. The SPE films were characterized by the X-ray diffraction, field emission scanning electron microscope, impedance-dielectric spectroscopy, and thermogravimetric analysis. The morphology of the SPE alters with salt addition and confirms the blend polymer complex formation. The FTIR analysis evidenced the complex formation, and increase in the fraction of free ions is achieved. The ionic conductivity exhibits a maximum at the stoichiometric ratio O/Na = 10 and follows the Arrhenius behavior. The fraction of free ions is maximum for the SPE film with the highest ionic conductivity. The optimum electrolyte possesses a voltage stability window of about 4�V, excellent thermal stability up to 380��C, and high ionic transference number (~ 1). The complex permittivity and conductivity have been simulated in whole frequency window to extract relaxation time and dielectric strength. The dielectric constant and relaxation time exhibited sequentially a maximum and minimum for the SPE film with the highest ionic conductivity. The loss tangent peak shifts toward high frequency with addition of salt, and it infers the faster ion dynamics in the polymer matrix. Then the ion transport parameters number density of charge carriers (n), ion mobility (?), and diffusion coefficient (D) have been obtained by three methods (FTIR, impedance spectroscopy, and loss tangent method) and are in absolute correlation with the impedance results. An ion transport mechanism has been proposed based on experimental findings. � 2019, Springer-Verlag GmbH Germany, part of Springer Nature.

    Temperature and Salt-Dependent Dielectric Properties of Blend Solid Polymer Electrolyte Complexed with LiBOB
    (Springer, 2019) Arya, Anil; Sharma, Achchhe Lal
    In the present paper, the temperature and salt-dependent dielectric properties of poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO) and poly(vinyl pyrrolidone) (PVP) blend matrix complexed with LiBOB are investigated in the frequency range 1 Hz to 1 MHz and temperature range 40 °C to 100 °C (@10 °C). The real and imaginary part of the complex permittivity, complex conductivity have been simulated in the whole frequency window and the various fitted parameters were evaluated respectively. The estimated value of the dielectric constant and the ac conductivity increases with the increase of temperature. The lowering of relaxation time and hopping length is observed with the salt addition that is in correlation with the complex conductivity results. The modulus formalism was used to analyze the recorded dielectric data. The dc conductivity, hopping frequency, and segmental motion are strongly coupled with each other as evidenced by the Debye-Stoke-Einstein (DSE) plot. An interaction mechanism has also been proposed to explore the effect of temperature on the hopping length, relaxation time, hopping potential barrier and the segmental motion of the polymer chain.
