Abstract:
The gel nanocomposite polymer elect rolyte (NCPE) was prepared by UV radiation curing based on poly(ethylene glycol) diacrylate ( PEGDA) monomer containing nanosize SiO
2 in the presence of liquid elect rolyte. ThePEGDA monomer containing nanosize SiO
2 was synthesized using aqueous colloidal silica as one of starting materialsthrough a solvent exchange process and the partial surface groups of SiO
2 were modified into acrylic group during theprocedure by employing methacryloxypropyl t rimethoxysilane (MAPTMS) , which made the nanosize SiO
2 havingthe UV-curable acrylate groups. Compared with the gel polymer elect rolyte based on PEGDA without nanosize filler , the ionic conductivity is higher and the improvement s in the elect rochemical stability and interfacial stability arenoticeable for the gel NCPE.
