Poly [vinylidene fluoride] (PVdF): Ammonium ceric nitrate ((NH4)2Ce(NO3)6) based Proton conducting solid polymer electrolytes (SPEs) are prepared by solution casting technique. Polymer electrolytes are characterized by several techniques. The Structural property of the electrolytes are confirmed by XRD. The functional groups present in polymer electrolytes are confirmed by FTIR. The conductivity of the polymer electrolytes are calculated by using AC impedance analysis. The Maximum ionic conductivity is obtained for 2wt% of ammonium ceric nitrate doped polymer electrolyte.
