Rheological Studies of PMMA–PVC Based Polymer Blend Electrolytes with LiTFSI as Doping Salt

چکیده
In this research, two systems are studied. In the first system, the ratio of poly (methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) and poly (vinyl chloride) (PVC) is varied, whereas in the second system, the composition of PMMA-PVC polymer blends is varied with dopant salt, lithium bis (trifluoromethanesulfonyl) imide (LiTFSI) with a fixed ratio of 70 wt% of PMMA to 30 wt% of PVC. Oscillation tests such as amplitude sweep and frequency sweep are discussed in order to study the viscoelastic properties of samples. Elastic properties are much higher than viscous properties within the range in the amplitude sweep and oscillatory shear sweep studies. The crossover of G' and G'' is absent. Linear viscoelastic (LVE) range was further determined in order to perform the frequency sweep. However, the absence of viscous behavior in the frequency sweep indicates the solid-like characteristic within the frequency regime. The viscosity of all samples is found to decrease as shear rate increases.

PVDF-HFP/PVC Blend Based Lithium Ion Conducting Polymer Electrolytes
Abstract. Flexible free standing polymer electrolyte films have been successfully prepared using a blend of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (PVDF-HFP) and poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) doped with lithium perchlorate (LiClO4). The conductivity of the film was influenced by salt concentration and the degree of crystallinity. An optimum room temperature conductivity obtained was 2.10...

X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy is widely used for the quantitative surface analysis of polymer blends. The compositions of some polymers can change under x-ray exposure, influencing peak intensities and positions in survey spectra and, in addition, the peak shapes in high-energy resolution spectra. In order to quantify spectra acquired after prolonged (>15 min) x-ray exposure, polymer decompo...
