On the dispersion of ionically conducting glass into the Li2SO4-Li2CO3 eutectic composite system
Abstract Mixed phase electrolytes consisting of mixture of Li 2 SO 4 -Li 2 CO 3 eutectic and different ionically conducting glasses have been prepared in an attempt to combine some of the advantages of polycrystalline and glassy ion conductors. At 20 wt% of glass, the low temperature conductivity is an order of magnitude larger than that of the pure sulphate-carbonate eutectic. These results can provide a new approach for the development of polycrystalline solid electrolytes.
