Nanocomposite polymer blend electrolytes composed of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) as a host polymer, Polyaniline (PANI) as an additive, Lithium Perchlorate (LiClO4) as dopant salt were prepared for different concentrations of Antimony Trioxide (Sb2O3) as inorganic filler with the constant ratio of PVA and PANI polymers by using electrospinning technique and investigated. The complexations of the samples were analyzed using X-ray diffraction (XRD) and FTIR spectroscopic techniques which indicate complexation between the polymers, salt and inorganic filler whereas micro surface structure of the composite electrolytes was analyzed using scanning electron microscope (SEM) studies which reveal the surface morphology of the prepared samples. Thermogravimetric analyses (TGA) shows enhancement in thermal stability of composite polymer electrolytes films upon inco.. Read More»
