Abstract
Glasses in the quaternary system 15NaF-15Na(2)O-70-[(1-x)B2O3-xCr(2)O( 3)] have been prepared by a melt quenching method and characterized by X-ray diffraction, differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and electr ical conductivity. The conductivity was found to vary in a non-linear manner with the composition x. The highest conductivity composition gl ass was used as an electrolyte in the fabrication of a solid state cel l. Its discharge characteristics were investigated at ambient temperat ure. The open circuit voltage of the cell was found to be 2.6 V while the short circuit current was 1000 mu A. Various cell parameters were evaluated.
