    Impact of shape (nanofiller vs. nanorod) of TiO2 nanoparticle on free-standing solid polymeric separator for energy storage/conversion devices
    (John Wiley and Sons Inc., 2019) Arya A.; Saykar N.G.; Sharma A.L.
    We report the investigation on examining the impact of nanofiller (NF)- versus nanorod (NR)-shaped titanium oxide (TiO2) nanoparticle on the structural, electrochemical, transport, thermal, and dielectric properties of the solid polymer electrolyte (SPE). Thin SPE films comprising of poly(ethylene oxide), sodium hexafluorophosphate, and dispersed with TiO2 NF, TiO2 NR (synthesized by hydrothermal route) has been prepared via solution cast technique. The shape of nanoparticle influences the morphological and structural properties as observed in field emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction analysis. The highest ionic conductivity was exhibited by the NR dispersed system and is higher than NF dispersed system for all recorded concentration consistently. It is attributed to the formation of the long-range conductive path with NR when compared with NF. In addition, the electrochemical stability window is much higher (~5 V) than the NF-doped system. Furthermore, the dielectric properties of SPE were investigated and fitted in the complete frequency window (1 Hz–1 MHz; T  = 40–100 °C @ 10 °C). It is observed that the NR dispersed system shows higher dielectric strength and low relaxation time with respect to NF dispersed system. The results suggest that the NR dispersed SPE possess enhanced properties and is more appropriate for an application in high energy density solid‐state Na ion batteries. © 2018 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

    Impact of Shape (Nanofiller vs. Nanorod) of TiO2 nanoparticle on Free Standing Solid Polymeric Separator for Energy Storage/Conversion Devices

    We report the investigation on examining the impact of nanofiller (NF)- versus nanorod (NR)-shaped titanium oxide(TiO2) nanoparticle on the structural, electrochemical, transport, thermal, and dielectric properties of the solid polymer electrolyte(SPE). Thin SPEfilms comprising of poly(ethylene oxide), sodium hexafluorophosphate, and dispersed with TiO2NF, TiO2NR (synthe-sized by hydrothermal route) has been prepared via solution cast technique. The shape of nanoparticle influences the morphologicaland structural properties as observed infield emission scanning electron microscope and X-ray diffraction analysis. The highest ionicconductivity was exhibited by the NR dispersed system and is higher than NF dispersed system for all recorded concentration consis-tently. It is attributed to the formation of the long-range conductive path with NR when compared with NF. In addition, the electro-chemical stability window is much higher (~5 V) than the NF-doped system. Furthermore, the dielectric properties of SPE wereinvestigated andfitted in the complete frequency window (1 Hz–1 MHz;T=40–100 C@10 C).

    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.
