L. Christie et al., Measurement of the apparent lithium ion transference number and salt diffusion coefficient in solid polymer electrolytes, ELECTR ACT, 44(17), 1999, pp. 2909-2913
Measurements of the apparent cation transference number of a solid polymer
electrolyte by a voltammetric technique are compared with results from the
steady-state dc polarization method. The combination of measurements made a
t a microelectrode and at a macroelectrode, performed in the absence of sup
porting electrolyte, yields both the apparent transference number theta, an
d the salt diffusion coefficient D. Lithium cationic transference numbers i
n a series of macroscopically solid gels were determined as a function of s
alt concentration. (C) 1999 Elsevier Science Ltd. All rights reserved.
