Ionic transport properties of PVdF-HFP-MMT intercalated nanocomposite electrolytes based on ionic liquid, 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide

Ionic conductivity and transport properties of polyvinylidenefluoride–co-hexafluoropropylene– montmorillonite intercalated nanocomposite electrolytes based on ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide have been studied for various concentrations of montmorillonite clay.

Abstract

Ionic conductivity and transport properties of polyvinylidenefluoride–co-hexafluoropropylene– montmorillonite intercalated nanocomposite electrolytes based on ionic liquid 1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium bromide have been studied for various concentrations of montmorillonite clay. Ionic conductivity of the order of 10−3 S cm−1 at room temperature with thermal stability up to about 235 °C has been obtained for the electrolyte system. The electrolyte system has superior properties at 5 wt% of clay loading with highly amorphous morphology as seen from selected area electron diffraction micrograph. Scanning electron microscope studies show that the electrolyte system has highly porous morphology and the ionic liquid is trapped in the pores. Dielectric properties of the electrolyte system have been studied to investigate the relaxation processes occurring in the system. Variation of real part of dielectric permittivity with frequency shows two relaxation processes occurring in the system, slow at low frequency and fast at high frequency. Kohlrausch exponential parameter has been calculated from modulus formalism, and the values show that the distribution of conductivity relaxation times becomes narrower with increasing clay loading.
