Ion Dynamics Study of Potato Starch + Sodium Salts Electrolyte System

الملخص EN

The effect of different anions, namely, SCN−, I−, and ClO4−, on the electrical properties of starch-based polymer electrolytes has been studied.

Anion size and conductivity are having an inverse trend indicating systems to be predominantly anionic conductor.

Impact of anion size and multiplet forming tendency is reflected in number of charge carriers and mobility, respectively.

Ion dynamics study reveals the presence of different mechanisms in different frequency ranges.

Interestingly, superlinear power law (SLPL) is found to be present at <5 MHz frequency, which is further confirmed by dielectric data.
