Preparation and characterization of polymer electrolytes methyl cellulose based potassium hydroxide for electrochemical cell / Mas Fiza Mustafa

In this study, methyl cellulose (MC) was used as the host with potassium hydroxide (KOH) as the ionic doping and dimethyl carbonate (DMC) as plasticizer and aluminum oxide (AI20 3) as filler. Films of methyl cellulose (Me), MC-KOH complexes, plasticized MC-KOH complexes and MC-KOH in addition of fil...
