Alkaline solid polymer blends electrolyte (ASPBE) films comprising a blend of
poly(vinylalcohol) (PVA) and poly(vinylpyrrolidone) (PVP), potassium hydroxide
(KOH) as ionic dopant, ethylene carbonate (EC) and propylene carbonate (PC) as
plasticizer have been prepared by solution casting technique. The concentration ratio of
the polymer blend, ionic dopant and plasticizer was varied systematically. The PVAPVP
blend has good mechanical strength as tested using tensile measurement. X-ray
diffraction (XRD) studies have been conducted to investigate the complexation in the
alkaline solid polymer blends electrolyte. The XRD results revealed that the amorphous
domain of PVA was increased when the PVP was blended. The variation in film
morphology was examined by scanning electron microscopic (SEM). The thermal
properties of these films were performed using differential scanning calorimeter (DSC)
and the result has confirmed the miscibility between the polymeric components. The
conductivity was studied using complex impedance spectroscopy to investigate ionic
conduction in blending PVA/PVP, PVA/PVP-KOH, PVA/PVP-KOH-EC and
PVA/PVP-KOH-PC electrolyte systems. The complex impedance spectroscopy results
revealed that the high-frequency semicircle was due to the bulk effect of the material.
