Abstract:
The study of chitosan polymer behavior as a solid thin film electrolytes have attracted
many researchers to involves into the conductivity exploration of chitosan polymer
electrolytes. The prepared chitosan acetate doped glycolic acid (CA-GA) thin film was
done in order to find the highest ionic conductivity of chitosan doped glycolic acid at
different glycolic acid (GA) concentration and temperature. These thin films doped GA
was made by using solution cast technique and analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared
Spectroscopy (FTIR) and Electrochemical Impedence Spectroscopy (EIS). FTIR analysis
shows that the carbonyl (C=NHR) in pure chitosan (CS) spectrum has been shifted to
1637 cm ·1in the pure CA. The band at 900 cm·
