The effect of plasticizer and TiO2 nanoparticles on the conductivity, chemical interaction and surface morphology of polymer electrolyte of MG49-EC-LiClO4-TiO2 has been investigated. The electrolyte films were successfully prepared by solution casting technique. The ceramic filler, TiO2, was synthes...
