The solid and nano-composite polymer electrolytes are the heart of electrochemical devices. The ion

conduction in polymer electrolytes is a complicated subject and is not completely understood and this remains an

obstacle in achieving the required ambient conductivity. Recent challenge is to find a low-cost membrane with

good ionic conductivity and mechanical stabilities.

More than three decades the researchers studied the conductivity as a function of temperature. The DC

conductivity versus reciprocal of temperature can be interpreted in terms of Arrhenius or Vogel–Tammann–

Fulcher (VTF) models. In Arrhenius model it was assumed that the cation transport and its contribution to

conductivity is a result of cation jump into neighbouring vacant sites and, hence, increases the ionic conductivity.

In the VTF model, the ion transport is correlated with polymer segmental motion which is related to the free

volume model. As the temperature increases, the polymer can expand easily and produce free volume to ion

conduction. The extensive and intensive survey of literature indicated that very little work has been done on

dielectric properties of ion conducting solid and nano-composite polymer electrolytes. From the correlation

between ionic conductivity and dielectric constant some insight on the ion transport can be derived. Recently the

correlation between DC conductivity and dielectric constant was shown for organic liquid electrolytes.

The main goal of this project is to understand the ion transport mechanism through the correlation

between DC conductivity and dielectric constant (ε') in solid and nano-composite polymer electrolytes.

C(viii) Detailed proposal of research project: Cadangan maklumat penyelidikan secara terperinci: (a) Research background including Hypothesis /Research Questions and Literature Reviews.

Keterangan latar belakang penyelidikan termasuk kenyataan hipotesis / persoalan penyelidikan dan kajian literatur.

The solid and nano-composite polymer electrolytes are the heart of electrochemical devices. This

component effectively separates the anode and cathode and mediates the electrochemical reaction occurring at

the electrodes through conduction of a specific ion. Electrical conduction through such a membranes occurs by

ion transport when induced by an electric field [1]. The ion conduction in polymer electrolytes is a complicated

subject and is not completely understood and this remains an obstacle in achieving the required ambient

conductivity. Recent challenge is to find a low-cost membrane with good ionic conductivity and mechanical

stabilities. The research hypothesis can be summarized in the following points:

� The dielectric constant enhancement is responsible to the increase in DC conductivity.

� Role of nano fillers dielectric constant on ion dissociation and conductivity.

� Dielectric constant values approaches a constant value at high frequencies.

It may be possible that at low salt concentration dielectric constant approach a constant value at high

frequencies. What about at high or intermediate salt concentration? At high or intermediate salt content there are

many interactions especially ion-ion interactions. Space charge regions or polarization may even occur even at

Page 11: Highly recommend ed(Mekanikal dan Pembuatan) (Elektrikal dan Elektronik) (Awam) Material and Polymer C hemical Engineering Information and Communication (Bahan dan Polimer) ( Kejuruteraan

high frequencies. So how will dielectric constant achieve a constant value?. What is the role of dielectric constant

on DC conductivity?. How the DC conductivity depends on dielectric constant and temperature?.

More than three decades the researchers studied the conductivity as a function of temperature. The DC

conductivity versus reciprocal of temperature can be interpreted in terms of Arrhenius or Vogel–Tammann–

Fulcher (VTF) models. In Arrhenius model it was assumed that the cation transport and it is contribution to

conductivity is a result of cation jump into neighbouring vacant sites and, hence, increases the ionic conductivity

to a higher value [2,3]. In the VTF model, the ion transport is correlated with polymer segmental motion which is

related to the free volume model [4-7]. As the temperature increases, the polymer can expand easily and

produce free volume. Thus, ions, solvated molecules or polymer segments can move into the free volume [5].

Recently researchers hypothesized that the DC conductivity is not only a function of temperature, but is also

dependent on the dielectric constant in organic liquid electrolytes [8, 9]. The extensive and intensive survey of

literature indicated that very little work has been done on dielectric properties of ion conducting solid and nano-

composite polymer electrolytes. From the correlation between DC conductivity and dielectric constant some

insight on the ion transport can be derived. Recently the correlation between DC conductivity and dielectric

constant was shown for organic liquid electrolytes successfully.

(b) Objective (s) of the Research

The main goal of this project is:

• To analysis the dielectric constant values at high and low frequencies at different temperatures.

• To show the correlation between DC conductivity and dielectric constant (ε') which are

evaluated from the high frequency region in impedance plots.

• To show the effect of crystallite size on DC conductivity and dielectric constant (structure-

property relationship)

(c) Methodology Kaedah penyelidikan

Please state in the form / Sila nyatakan di borang ini

1. Description of Methodology The solid and nano-composite polymer electrolytes can be prepared by the solution cast technique.

In this technique an appropriate amount of the polymer and different salts can be dissolved

separately in a suitable solvent to prepare polymer electrolytes. For this purpose the solution must

be stirred continuously with a magnetic stirrer for several hours at room temperature until

homogeneous solutions can be obtained. The solutions then must be cast into different clean and

dry petri dish and allowed to evaporate at room temperature to obtain solvent-free solid films. For

further drying the films must be keep in desiccators with blue silica gel desiccant. To prepare nano-

composite polymer electrolytes (NCPEs) the highest dielectric constant and conducting systems

must be select. Initially the polymer and the salt must be dissolving in a solvent to obtain

homogeneous solutions as described to prepare solid polymer electrolytes. To prepare NCPEs the

nano filler must be dispersed in solution and stirred to obtain a homogeneous dispersion. To obtain

solvent-free NCPE films the solutions can be cast into different clean and dry petri dish and allowed

to evaporate at room temperature. The films should be put in desiccators with blue silica gel

desiccant for further drying.
