Plasticized chitosan-PVA blend polymer electrolyte based proton battery
This paper focused on the transport studies of PVA-chitosan blended electrolyte system and application in proton batteries. The electrolytes were prepared by the solution cast technique. In this work, 36 wt.% PVA and 24 wt.% chitosan blend doped with 40 wt.% NH(4)NO(3) exhibited the highest room tem...
