Structural, impedance, and EDLC characteristics of Proton conducting chitosan-based polymer blend electrolytes with high electrochemical stability

In this report, a facile solution casting technique was used to fabricate polymer blend electrolytes of chitosan (CS):poly (ethylene oxide) (PEO):NH4SCN with high electrochemical stability (2.43V). Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was used to investigate the polymer electrolyte formati...
