Polymer blend electrolytes composed of poly(acrylonitrile) (PAN) and poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) as host polymers and lithium perchlorate as a salt were prepared by solution casting technique. The electrolytes were prepared for different ratios of host polymers with standard weight ratio of the...
