The room temperature conductivity of the chitosan complex containing 40 wt.% of salt increased from 6.02 x 10(-6) Scm(-1) to 2.10 x 10(-5) Scm(-1) after the addition of 1.0 wt.% aluminosilicate. Conductivity of the electrolyte is contributed from the charge carrier density and ionic mobility. The Ri...
