摘要: A starch-resorcinol-formaldehyde (RF)-lithium triflate (LiTf) based biodegradable polymer electrolyte membrane was synthesized via the solution casting technique. The formation of RF crosslinks in starch matrix found to repress starch’s crystallinity as indicated by XRD data. Incorporation plasticizer improved conductivity greatly, with highest room-temperature recorded being 4.29 × 10−4 S cm−1 achieved starch:LiTf:RF (20 wt.%:20 wt.%:60 wt.%) composition. enhancement ionic an implication increase polymeric amorphous region concurrent suppression crystallinity. Chemical complexation between plasticizer, starch, and lithium salt components confirmed FTIR spectra.
