Abstract
Polyethylene oxide (PEO)/LixV(2-delta)O(4-delta) nanocomposites were prepar
ed in aqueous solution. Characterization of the nanocomposites using therma
l gravimetric analysis (TGA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), powd
er X-ray diffraction (XRD), and Fourier transform infrared spectrum (FTIR)
shows that polymer chains intercalate inorganic host lamella and exhibit la
ttice expansion along the stacking direction of 4.2 Angstrom. A possible mo
del for the structure of the nanocomposite is also provided. (C) 2001 John
