Protonic cell performance employing electrolytes based on plasticized methylcellulose-potato starch-NH4NO3

Electrolytes consisting of methylcellulose/potato starch blend incorporated with ammonium nitrate (NH4NO3) are prepared by solution cast method. Field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) discovers that methylcellulose and starch are miscible. Cation transference number (tcat) of the highes...
