Abstract:
Solid Polymer electrolytes (SPEs) comprising of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)
added Zinc chloride (ZnCl2) systems have been prepared via solvent casting
technique. The prepared samples have been subjected to AC impedance
spectroscopic analysis and Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR)
studies. Maximum ionic conductivity of 3.91949*10-7 Scm-1 was achieved
for 60 wt% of PVA and 40wt% of ZnCl2 system at room temperature.
The structural changes and hence the complex formation between the
constituents used in the present study has been confirmed through FTIR
analysis.
