| Summary: | Ionic conductive polymer electrolyte may bring the lithium battery technology to the next level by replacing the current dry (paste form) and liquid cell type of battery. Polymer electrolyte is a promising material for the ever-growing need for high-density electrochemical device applications, namely, high-density rechargeable batteries. The field of polymer electrolyte has gone through several stages, namely, dry solid system, polymer gel and polymer composite. Polymer gel and polymer composite electrolyte have shown conductivity with the highest value of 10-3 Scm-1. However, the dry solid system still suffers from poor conductivity with a range of 10-5 Scm-1, but they are safer than the polymer gel and polymer composite due to the absence of any organic solvents, which are harmful to the environments.
In this research work, the effects of lithium salt, plasticizer and filler on Polycaprolactone (PCL) based solid polymer electrolyte were studied. |
