Article Synopsis

The transition to solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs), particularly solid biopolymer electrolytes (SBEs) made from natural polymers, is gaining traction due to their simplicity, affordability, and eco-friendliness.
SBEs using glycerol-plasticized methylcellulose/pectin/potassium phosphate (MC/PC/KPO) were studied for use in electrochemical double-layer capacitors (EDLC), showing improved ionic conductivity and structural properties as glycerol concentration increased.
The optimal sample with 50% glycerol exhibited a high ionic conductivity of 7.5 × 10^-3 S/cm, a wide potential window of 3.99 V, and a specific capacitance of 57.14 F/g

In this research, nanocomposite solid polymer electrolytes (NCSPEs) comprising methylcellulose/pectin (MC/PC) blend as host polymer, ammonium chloride (NHCl) as an ion source, and zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) as nanofillers were synthesized via a solution cast methodology. Techniques such as Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), electrical impedance spectroscopy (EIS), and linear sweep voltammetry (LSV) were employed to characterize the electrolyte. FTIR confirmed that the polymers, NHCl salt, and ZnO nanofiller interact with one another appreciably.
