Ionic conductivity studies of poly(vinyl alcohol) alkaline solid polymer electrolyte and its use in nickel–zinc cells
X-ray diffraction (XRD) pattern reveals that potassium hydroxide (KOH) disrupts the crystalline nature of poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA)-based polymer electrolytes and converts them into an amorphous phase. The PVA–KOH alkaline solid polymer electrolyte (ASPE) system with PVA/KOH wt.% ratio of 60:40 exhi...
