Abstract:
Composite polymer electrolytes (CPE) films consisting of PEO , LiClO

3 were prepared by the solution casting method with fixed EO/ Li = 8 but different relative compositions of the twolithium salts1 The CPE films were characterized using DSC and electrical impedance spectroscopy ( EIS) . It is found thatthe incorporation of Li

3 into PEO by keeping EO/ Li = 8 reduces the crystallinity of PEOfrom 50.34 % to the range of 4.36 %~28.53 % depending upon the relative composition of the two salts. The room temperature impedance spectra of the CPE films all exhibited a shape of depressed semicircle in high frequency range and inclined line in low frequency range , but the high temperature ones were mainly the inclined lines1 The ionic conductivity ofthe CPE films followed Arrhenius law and the activation energy ( Ea) of the films was the lowest , i1e1 4.494425 eV , atthe Li
