The effect of plasticizer on the ubiquitous ion-pairing observed in polymer electrolytes has been investigated using FTIR as a probe of the local environment of the triflate ion in sodium and lithium triflate based electrolytes. Plasticizers having a range of properties, such as, propylene carbonate

The addition of various kinds of plasticizers can enhance the conductivity of polymer eiectrolyte systems, in some cases by many orders of magnitude. The plasticizer may be a low molecular weight solvent, or be a low molecular weight polymer. As the plasticizer concentration increases there is an in
Conductivity data provide only limited insight into transport mechanisms in polymer electrolytes. Because the cation-polymer and anion-polymer interactions are fundamentally different, it is likely that the motion of cations on an atomic scale takes place by a different mechanism from that of anions
