A hot-press technique has been used for the formation of the polymeric membranes in place of the usual solution cast method. The composition （80 PEO：20 KI） was identified as the highest conducting polymer electrolyte on the basis of compositional dependent conductivity studies of PEO：KI films. A conductivity enhancement of more than two orders of magnitude from that of the pure PEO was achieved. Materials characterization and ion transport mechanism were explained by using various experimental techniques.展开更多
