A Scientific Research Study in the Field of Chemistry Published by the Scientific Research Center at Soran University
Continuing the scientific activities and academic contributions of researchers at the Scientific Research Center at Soran University, a remarkable study titled “Glycerol-induced enhancement of ionic transport and dielectric properties in LiNO₃-doped methylcellulose polymer electrolytes” has been published. This research was conducted by Dr. Paiman Khalid Aspoka and Sarbast Mamand Hussein, a researcher at the center.
The study has been published in the high-impact international journal Ionics, which is part of Springer Nature, with an impact factor of 2.4.
This research highlights how the addition of glycerol to a polymer blend composed of methylcellulose (MC) and lithium nitrate (LiNO₃) significantly enhances ionic conductivity. The presence of glycerol improves the material’s flexibility and increases its segmental motion, allowing ions to move more freely and thereby improving overall performance. As a result, this material holds potential applications in safer and more efficient energy storage devices, such as solid-state batteries, which offer advantages over conventional liquid electrolytes.
