Fig. 11.13 Reflective optical microscopy results of the composites with 0 (Ã), 10 (b), 20 (c), and
50 (d) phr of LiClO 4 salt [43]
on the surface of the composite is the following: carbon is 51.57 wt.%, oxygen is
43.79 wt.%, and chlorine is 4.64 wt.%, while their distribution coincides with the
ordering of inclusions identified by the means of optical and electron microscopy.
This allows concluding that the nature of these inclusions with oxygen and chlorine
saturation is inorganic.
11.4 Conclusions
The comprehensive study of composites based on aliphatic epoxy oligomer (diglycide aliphatic ester of polyethylene glycol, DEG-1) containing different amounts
of LiClO 4 salt (0–50 phr.) revealed creation of interactions between lithium
cations Li + and the macromolecular chain of DEG-1 with forming of coordinative
complexes. It is reflected in a substantial reduction of segmental mobility of
DEG-1 chains within the formed complexes that linearly increase glass transition
temperature T g of polymer matrix with salt content.
