Abstract
Positron-lifetime measurements have been made for poly(ether urethane) undoped and doped with [LiClO4]/[Unit] = 0.05 in the temperature rang e of 120-340 K. The measured lifetime spectra were resolved into three components. The lifetime and the intensity of orthopositronium were u sed to evaluate the amount of the free volume in poly(ether urethane). It was found that the variation of ionic conductivity with temperatur e and salt concentration can be rationalised in terms of free volume c onsideration.
