NMR, DSC, and Electrical Conductivity Studies of MEEP Complexed with NaCF3So3
Abstract
23 Na NMR, electrical conductivity, and DSC studies have been carried out on MEEP complexed with NaCF3SO3. All results are similar to those for other amorphous ion conducting polymers. Specifically, the NMR spectrum associated with mobile Na+ ions exhibits motional narrowing above the glass transitions temperature, and activation energies deduced from both T1 and linewidth measurements reflect localized motion of the cations. The electrical conductivity exhibits the usual non-Arrhenius behavior. However, using previous data for PDMS-EO complexes, it is shown that the VTF or WLF equations are only approximate as the parameters depend upon the temperature range. This sheds light on several discrepancies in the literature. Keywords: Solid state ionics, Phosphazenes.
