Any substance containing free ions that make

the substance electrically conductive is called

electrolyte.

A solid compound in which ions migrate through

vacancies or interstices within the lattice which

leads to ionic conductivity.

What is electrolyte?

What is Solid electrolyte?

ICAER 2013 11/12/2013

۞ Availability of large number of free ions.

۞ Requirement of low activation energy for the movement

of ions into neighbouring sites.

۞ Three dimensional networking for free movement of the

ions.

۞ The anion framework should be highly polarizable.

Linear fit of Tc Linear fit of Tg

ln [Tc2⁄β] = Ea⁄(RTc ) + constant

Where, Tc is the peak crystallization temperature, R is the gas constant and β is heating

rate. A graph between ln [Tc2⁄β] and 1000/Tc gives straight line and from its slope (Ea/R)

activation energy of the crystallization is obtained. ICAER 2013 11/12/2013

• All sample shows halo pattern indicating its amorphous nature.

• Glass samples for x = 45 and x = 55 mol % Na2S shows good

stability.

• Glass-ceramics sample shows mainly three phases.

• With increase in Na2S content the most conducting phase Na3PS4 is

found to be increased.

• The ionic conductivity of present samples are found to be in the

order of 10-5 S/cm at room temperature.

• SEM micrographs reveals dense and well grown crystals. ICAER 2013 11/12/2013
