应用溶解—铸膜法制备聚乙烯醇(polyvinylalcohol,PVA)碱性凝胶聚合物电解质(gelpolymerelectrolyte,GPE)薄膜.交流阻抗(EIS)测试表明,随着KOH含量的增加,该薄膜的离子电导率表现为先增大而后减小的变化趋势,当KOH含量为42%(bymass,下同)时,电导率达到最大值,为2.01×10-3S/cm.X射线衍射(XRD)结果表明,当膜中KOH含量大于20%时,晶态的PVA就逐渐转变为非晶态结构.又当KOH含量增加到一定值后,由于体系中未电离的非晶态KOH量的增多而导致离子电导率下降.循环伏安(CV)和拉曼光谱(Raman)结果表明,该薄膜具有很好的电化学稳定性,可应用于碱性二次电池.
Polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) alkaline polymer gel electrolyte(GPE) membranes were successfully prepared by a solution-casting technique and their electrochemical stabilities were investigated. The electrochemical impedance spectrum (EIS) results showed that the ionic conductivity of the PVA alkaline GPE membranes first increased with the increase of KOH content, then decreased with the further increase of KOH. When the weight percentage of the KOH in the PVA alkaline GPE membrane approached to 42%, it exhibitedthe highest ionic conductivity of 2.01×10~(-3 ) S/cm at room temperature (R.T.). The X-ray diffraction (XRD) results revealed that with the increase of KOH the crystalline of the PVA was disrupted and converted into an amorphous phase. While the ionic conductivity decreased due to the increase of the amorphous unionized KOH in the membranes with the further increase of KOH. The cyclic voltammograms (CV) and Raman spectra indicated that the GPE membranes had promising electrochemical stabilities. It is suggested that the PVA alkalineGPE membranes could be used for practical applications in alkaline rechargeablebatteries.
