Complexion Formation in PVA/PEO/CuCl2 Solid Polymer Electrolyte

Universal Journal of Materials Science, 2015

Solid polymer electrolyte films based on polymer blends of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and poly(ethylene oxide) (PEO), with different concentration of copper (II) chloride (CuCl 2) were prepared using casting technique. Optical studies were performed using Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) and Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscopy. The optical properties of these films were varied by varying CuCl 2 concentration. The results show the absorption edge for electrolyte samples shifts toward a lower energy region by increasing the salt concentration, leading to the band gap reduction. The band gap energy data showed that the incorporation of CuCl 2 into the polymeric system causes charge transfer complexes in the blend polymer, which lead to increase in the electrical conductivity, by providing additional charges in the lattice. The PVA/PEO/CuCl 2 solid polymer electrolyte films exhibit good UV shielding properties in the wavelength range from 190 to 400 nm.

Evolution of the optical properties of PVA film filled with CuCl

journal of garmian university

Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) has been doped by different percentage of Copper Chloride (CuCl), films for different weight ratio (0, 1, 1.5, and 2%) were prepared by the well-known solution cast method. The optical properties were obtained in the wavelength range (190-1100) nm. Results show that for the pure PVA films the optical constants were increased after doping and with increasing impurity concentration. For indirect allowed transition the optical energy gap decreases from 4.6 eV (for pure PVA) to 3.8 eV (for PVA+2%CuCl). The results show the absorption edge for electrolyte samples moves toward a lower energy region by increasing the salt concentration, leading to the band gap reduction. This study shows that the optical properties of PVA are affected by salt concentration.

Influence of Cobalt (II) Chloride Catalysed on the Thermal and Optical Characterization of PEO Based Solid Polymer Electrolytes

Journal of Research Updates in Polymer Science, , 2014

Solution-casting technique was employed for the preparation of solid polymer electrolyte based polyethylene oxide (PEO) with 0, 1, 3 and 5 weight percentage cobalt chloride (CoCl2) films were characterized by X-ray Diffractometry (XRD), Differrential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC), Scanning Electron Microscope (SEM) and Ultra Violet-Visible (UV-Vis.) Spectroscopy methods. The optical band gaps, absorption band edges and Urbach energy shows decrease with increasing of Co +2 ion concentration in the polymer matrix because of the formation of free radicals or cluster. The Thermogravimetry (TG) and Derivative Thermogravimetry (DTG) were used to examine the thermal stability of the film and it was found that the stability of the complexes is higher than that of the pure PEO due to the addition of CoCl2. The wavelength position of a fluorescence emission band varied by increasing of a dopant wt % of salt.

IOSR Journal of Applied Physics, 2013

Polymer electrolytes based on Polyvinyl alcohol-Cadmium Chloride were prepared by solution cast technique. Results of optical absorption, transmission spectra, refractive index, optical band gaps, optical conductance, single oscillator energy, dispersion energy, real and imaginary parts of dielectric constants studies are presented. The optical properties were obtained using UV-VIS Double Beam Spectrophotometer in the wavelength range (190-1100) nm. The optical transmittance at wavelength ≈ 190nm for pure PVA was nearly at 78%, while it was 50% for all doped samples. The optical transmittance was increased with increasing wavelength up to 98% for all films beyond ≈240nm. The calculated energy band gap changes from 6.42eV (pure PVA) to 5.80eV (PVA-20%CdCl 2 .H 2 O). The optical conductance and band-gap indicated that the films are almost transmitting within the visible range. The single oscillator expression has been used to obtain the information about disorder degree. The real and imaginary parts of dielectric constant of the doped films increases with increasing CdCl 2 .H 2 O concentration, and it shows decreases abruptly in the wavelength (200-220) nm, and finally becomes constant with increase in photon energy.

Electrical and Optical Properties of PVA/LiI Polymer Electrolyte Films

PVA has been doped by different percentage of Lithium Iodide (LiI), electrical and optical properties of polymer electrolytes have been investigated. At low frequency, the variation of dielectric constant and dielectric loss with frequency shows the presence of material electrode inter-face polarization processes. The exponent factor found is between 0.98 and 0.442 and obeys the universal power law. The absorption of pure and doped films have been studied in the visible and ultra-violet wavelength regions. It has been observed that the new absorption peaks at 290 and 375 nm are due to the formation of charge transfer complex. From direct allowed transition the optical energy gap decreases from 5.56 eV (for pure PVA) to 4.95 eV (for PVA+20%LiI).
