Abstract:Solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) with poly (vinyl) chloride (PVC) doped with a fixed amount of ammonium trifluoro methane sulfonate (NH4Tf) and with varying concentrations of ionic liquid butyltrimethyl ammonium bis (trifluoromethyl sulfonyl) imide (Bu3MeNTf2N) were synthesised via solution cast technique. PVC-NH4Tf-Bu3MeNTf2N-based SPEs with 15 weight % Bu3MeNTf2N exhibit conductivity of 1.56 x 10-4 Scm-1 at room temperature. The ionic conductivity is attributed to the dissociation of NH4Tf facilitated by Bu… Show more
