Abstract

We report on the effect of addition of low molecular weight (Mw=400) PEG on protonic conduction of the solid polymer electrolyte (PEG)100NH4ClO4. We study the changes in the temperature dependence of conductivity as a function of the amount of the added plasticizer. NMR lineshape studies indicate a reduction in the relative fraction of crystalline regions on addition of the plasticizer. We show that the plasticizer reduces both the Tg and crystallinity of the samples, thus increasing the conductivity.
