Acid‐Based Polymer Gel as an Efficient Electrolyte

Abstract

AbstractPresent studies basically focused on preparation a system by using polymer which can show high value of conductivity and can be used as an efficient electrolyte in the formation of electrostatic double layer capacitor cell (EDLC). Here, polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) polymer‐H2SO4 acid‐based electrolyte system have been synthesized. H2SO4 as acid is diluted using double distilled (DD) water for maximum conductivity. Various wt% of PVP as polymer added in optimized H2SO4 (1.0 M). Different types of electrical studies such as: electrical conductivity, dielectric analysis, potential window stability have been analyzed for good results. Selected system (PVP‐H2SO4) shows highest conductivity in the range ≈10−1 S cm−1.
