Abstract:

In the present work one host natural matrix - agar - has been doped with magnesium triflate (Mg(CF3SO3)2) with the goal of developing electrolytes for the fabrication of solid-state devices. The resulting samples have been represented by the notation Agar nMg(CF3SO3)2, where n represents the percentage of the magnesium triflate salt proportion in the electrolyte samples. The samples investigated, with n between 0.00% and 37.56%, have been obtained as transparent and thin films. The samples have been characterized by conductivity measurements, thermal analysis, cyclic voltammetry, X-ray diffraction (XRD), and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The agar-based electrolytes were also tested as ionic conductor in an electrochromic device with the following configuration: glass/indium tin oxide (ITO)/WO 3/agar-based electrolyte/CeO2-TiO2/ITO/glass. © 2013 Copyright Taylor and Francis Group, LLC.
