Natural macromolecule based carboxymethyl cellulose as a gel polymer electrolyte with adjustable porosity for lithium ion batteries

Association and Diffusion of Li+ in Carboxymethylcellulose Solutions for Environmentally Friendly Li‐ion Batteries

“…However, there are issues related to the stability of the electrolyte and the electrodes; the use of highly concentrated “water‐in‐salt” media promotes the formation of a solid–electrolyte interphase layer, which widens the electrochemical stability window . The combination of an aqueous solution and a biomass‐derived, polymeric gelling agent would be an ideal electrolyte from many points of view . This is clearly evident from the comparison with current LIB technologies.…”

Ultrasonic mediated production of carboxymethyl cellulose: Optimization of conditions using response surface methodology

“…Carboxymethyl cellulose is one of the most valuable and important derivatives of cellulose, which has various applications in textile, food, oil drilling, chemicals, ceramic and building industries (Oun & Rhim, 2015). Today this materail has found new intrests in advanced fields like tissue engineering (Khan & Ahmad, 2013), dye adsorbent (Genlin Zhang, Yi, Deng, & Sun, 2014), hemostatic agent (Ohta et al, 2015), lithium ion batteries (Zhu et al, 2015), adsorption of heavy metals (Wei, Kim, Song, Bediako, & Yun, 2015) and drug delivery (Zhou, Cao, Li, Zhang, & Ding, 2015). It is usually synthesised by a two-step alkali-catalyzed reaction of cellulose with monochloroacetic acid (MCA).…”

Novel Proton Conducting Solid Bio-polymer Electrolytes Based on Carboxymethyl Cellulose Doped with Oleic Acid and Plasticized with Glycerol

“…Several renewable resource-based biopolymers are suitable to be used as host polymer in the polymer electrolytes123, such as starch4, cellulose5678, chitosan9101112, carrageenan1314 and agarose1516. The polymers can solvate the dopant if there is direct interaction between the lone pair electron of the heteroatom such as oxygen or nitrogen in the polymer and cation of the ionic dopant217. Therefore, it is a significant develop solid biopolymer electrolytes (SBE) by using natural polymer.…”

“…Cellulose-based solid polymer electrolyte have received much attention over the past few years for many applications such as batteries, fuel cells, super capacitors, display devices, sensors, etc 31718…”
