Study of Aloe Vera as a Natural Plasticizer in PEO based Polymeric Electrolyte

ABSTRACT

Development of biodegradable natural polymers, open the enormous field of applications in the area of technical as well as medical science. Today, various natural polymers have been utilized in different biomedical applications. Aloe vera is one of them. Synthesis of PEO- Lithium acetate composite polymer electrolyte with organic and natural plasticizers shows the better thermal stability and ionic conductivity. The electrolyte film was synthesized by solution cast technique. Changes in structural morphology have been observed using XRD and FTIR technique. Variation of electrical conductivity with temperature was studied with the aid of impedance spectroscopy.
