The origin of the ionic conductivity enhancement in polymer electrolytes that occurs on adding inorganic oxide powders was explored by H-1 and Li-7 nuclear magnetic resonance. Ionic and molecular self-diffusion coefficients determined by pulsed field gradient spin-echo measurements demonstrate that lithium ionic diffusivity is enhanced in the composites, but this enhancement is not attributed to polymer segmental mobility. Two different systems were investigated: a high-molecular-mass poly(ethylene oxide)-LiClO4 complex with nanoscale TiO2; and a low-molecular-mass poly(ethylene glycol)-LiClO4 solution with Al2O3 In the latter case the effect of varying the alumina surface acidity or basicity was considered.

Abstract
The origin of the ionic conductivity enhancement in polymer electrolytes that occurs on adding inorganic oxide powders was explored by H-1 and Li-7 nuclear magnetic resonance. Ionic and molecular self-diffusion coefficients determined by pulsed field gradient spin-echo measurements demonstrate that lithium ionic diffusivity is enhanced in the composites, but this enhancement is not attributed to polymer segmental mobility. Two different systems were investigated: a high-molecular-mass poly(ethylene oxide)-LiClO4 complex with nanoscale TiO2; and a low-molecular-mass poly(ethylene glycol)-LiClO4 solution with Al2O3 In the latter case the effect of varying the alumina surface acidity or basicity was considered.I documenti in IRIS sono protetti da copyright e tutti i diritti sono riservati, salvo diversa indicazione.
