Abstract
Composition of 75V2O5-(25-x) MgO-(x) K2O (x = 6, 9, 12, and 15 mol%) are synthesized by melt quench technique. All the as quenched samples either formed the glasses or glass ceramic as confirmed by differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) and X-ray diffraction (XRD). The DSC curves exhibited the two glass transition temperatures (Tg), two crystallization temperatures (Tc), and with two melting temperatures (Tm) which could be related to the presence of two distinct glass in the present samples. The K2O content increases the devitrification tendency of as quenched samples and formed the crystalline phases i.e. K3VO4 along with glassy phase in higher concentration of K2O. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) is confirmed that the vanadium exhibit two oxidation states V4+ / V5+. The highest ratio of V4+/V5+ is found in (x = 15) sample which exhibited the highest conductivity i.e. 1.3 × 10−3 S/cm at 250 °C. It is two orders higher than the (x = 6) sample at 250 °C. The high conducting glass ceramics can be used as cathode in all solid state battery and fuel cells.
期刊介绍:
This interdisciplinary journal is devoted to the physics, chemistry and materials science of diffusion, mass transport, and reactivity of solids. The major part of each issue is devoted to articles on:
(i) physics and chemistry of defects in solids;
(ii) reactions in and on solids, e.g. intercalation, corrosion, oxidation, sintering;
(iii) ion transport measurements, mechanisms and theory;
(iv) solid state electrochemistry;
(v) ionically-electronically mixed conducting solids.
Related technological applications are also included, provided their characteristics are interpreted in terms of the basic solid state properties.
Review papers and relevant symposium proceedings are welcome.
