Polymer–ceramic composite electrolytes: conductivity and thermal history effects

Conductivity, thermal and infrared studies on plasticized polymer electrolytes with carbon nanotubes as filler

“…This provides more effective paths for the migration of conductivity ions. Moreover, the nano-size αCNTs improve the OH stretching [37] conduction of mobile ions due to their extremely high surface energy [58][59][60][61][62][63]. This prevents local PEO chain re-organization which results in freezing at ambient temperature and a high degree of disorder.…”

Novel magnetic–dielectric composite ceramic obtained from Y3Fe5O12 and CaTiO3

“…In this miniaturization process, the material must present higher dielectric permittivity (e r ) (antenna, for example) and higher thermal stability [4][5][6]. Due to this, composite ceramic materials have been appearing as promising alternative, where the mixture of distinct properties that are not interesting in the first moment, could result in another one (sum of the isolated phases) that can be applied [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].…”

Electrochemical investigations on the effect of dispersoid in PVA based solid polymer electrolytes

“…This transport mechanism provides a path for the conduction of lithium ions. [22][23][24] Therefore an appreciable enhancement in the conductivity has been obtained for the heterogeneous electrolyte. The improvement in conductivity can also be attributed to the ceramic particles, acting as a nucleation centers for the formation of minute crystallites and the ceramic particles aiding in the formation of amorphous phases in the polymer electrolyte.…”
