In this paper, the mechanical properties of carboxymethyl cellulose-oleic acid (CMC-OA) solid bio-polymer electrolyte (SBE) were examined. The host, CMC was doped with different weight percentage (wt. %) of OA in the CMC-OA solution. The SBEs were tested by using the Universal Material Testing Machine where the readings of tensile strength and Young’s modulus can be obtained from the stress-strain curve produced by the software during the tension test. The sample of CMC doped with 20% wt. of OA was found to obtain the highest value of tensile strength and Young’s modulus which is 0.2069 MPa and 4.615 MPa respectively.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
