In this study, solid biopolymer electrolyte (SBE) has been prepared using
carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC) and ammonium chloride (AC) by solution casting
method. The effect of plasticizers ; ethylene carbonate (BC) and propylene carbonate
(PC) was investigated. The ionic conductivity of CMC-AC-EC and CMC-AC-PC
achieved at 2.715 x 10-5 Scm-1 and 3.672 x 10-5 Scm-1, respectively. The Fourier
Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectra showed the occurrence of complexation between
the SBE and AC salt. X-Ray diffraction (XRD) indicated that amorphous nature is
higher in CMC-AC-PC. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) showed higher
Tg for CMC-AC-PC. It can be concluded that PC is the promising plasticizer to
enhance the ionic conductivity and performance of SBE system.
