The X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the scan electron microscope (SEM) are used to investigate the phases and microstructures. The measurements and analyses of oxygen ionic conductivity of SDC-LSGM are carried out through the four-terminal direct current (DC) method and the electrochemical impendence spectroscopy, respectively. The optimum weight ratio of SDC-LSGM is 8∶2, of which the ionic conductivity is 0.113 S/cm at 800℃ and the conductivity activation energy is 0.620 eV. The impendence spectra shows that the grain boundary resistance becomes the main barrier for the ionic conductivity of electrolyte at lower temperatures. The appropriate introduction of LSGM to the electrolyte SDC can not only decrease the electronic conductivity but also improve the conditions of the grain and grain boundary, which is advantageous to cause an increase in oxygen ionic conductivity.展开更多

The poly(lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile)/LiClO4-LiNO3-LiBr solid polymer electrolytes were prepared with poly(lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile) and (LiClO4-LiNO3-LiBr) eutectic salts. The effect of LiClO4-LiNO3-LiBr eutectic salts content on the conductivity of solid polymer electrolytes was studied by alternating current impedance method, and the structures of eutectic salts and solid polymer electrolytes were characterized by differential thermal analysis, infrared spectroscopy and X-ray diffractometry. The results show that the room temperature conductivity of LiClO4-LiNO3-LiBr eutectic salts reaches (3.11×10-4 S·cm-1.) The poly(lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile)/LiClO4-LiNO3-LiBr solid polymer electrolytes possess the highest room temperature conductivity at 70% LiClO4-LiNO3-LiBr eutectic salts content, and exhibit lower glass transition temperature of 75 ℃ compared with that of poly(lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile) of 105 ℃. A complex may be formed in the solid polymer electrolytes from the differential thermal analysis and infrared spectroscopy analysis. X-ray diffraction results show that the poly(lithium acrylate-acrylonitrile) can suppress the crystallization of eutectic salts in this system.展开更多

SiO2 was formed in-situ in (PEO)8LiClO4 matrix by the hydrolysis and condensation reaction of Si(OC4H9)4. The crystallinity,morphology and ionic conductivity of composite polymer electrolyte films were examined by differential scanning calorimetry,scanning electron microscopy,atom force microscopy and alternating current impedance spectroscopy,respectively. Compared with the crystallinity of the unmodified SiO2 as inert filler,that of composite polymer electrolytes is decreased. The results show that silane-modified SiO2 particles are uniformly dispersed in (PEO)8LiClO4 composite polymer electrolyte film and the addition of silane-modified SiO2 increases the ionic conductivity of the (PEO)8LiClO4 more noticeably. When the mass fraction of SiO2 is about 10%,the conductivity of (PEO)8LiClO4-modified SiO2 attains a maximum value of 4.8×10-5 S·cm-1.展开更多

The conductivities of the ternary systems were also determined using generalized Young's rule and semi-ideal solution theory in terms of the data of their binary solutions. The comparison showed that the two simple equations provide good predictions for conductivity of mixed electrolyte solutions and the mixed ionic liquid solutions based on the conductivity of their binary subsystems.展开更多

文摘This work provides a method to explore the transport property of the electrolyte aqueous solutions with one or two ionic liquids, especially focus on their electrical conductivity. The conductivities were measured for the ternary systems Na Cl–[C6mim][Cl](1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium chloride)–H2O, [C6mim][BF4]–[C6mim][Cl]–H2O,Na NO3–[C6mim][BF4](1-hexyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate)–H2O, and [C4mim][BF4](1-butyl-3-methylimidazolium tetrafluoroborate)–[C6mim][BF4]–H2O, and their binary subsystems NaN O3–H2O, NaC l–H2O,[C6mim][BF4]–H2O, [C6mim][Cl]–H2O, and [C4mim][BF4]–H2O, respectively. The conductivities of the ternary systems were also determined using generalized Young's rule and semi-ideal solution theory in terms of the data of their binary solutions. The comparison showed that the two simple equations provide good predictions for conductivity of mixed electrolyte solutions and the mixed ionic liquid solutions based on the conductivity of their binary subsystems.

文摘The (1-x)BaZr0.9Y0.1O3-δ(BZY)-xCe0.8Sm0.2O2-δ(SDC, x =0.1,0.3,0.5 and 0.7) composite electrolytes were prepared by combining a gel polymerization method with a ball milling. X-ray diffraction (XRD) patterns show the mixture of BZY and SDC is only crystalline phase as the composite electrolyte. The relative density,grain size and total conductivity of composite electrolytes increase significantly with the increase of SDC content. The maximum conductivity of 0.1 BZY-0.9 SDC reaches 2×10^2 S·cm^-1 at 600 ℃ in wet air,which is close to the conductivity of SDC.
