Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) and polyethyl methacrylate (PEMA) were used to prepare polymer blends for use in solid polymer electrolyte. Dynamic me- chanical analysis showed that both the storage modulus (E') and the glass transition temperature (Tg) of the PVC/ PEMA blend are intermediate between those of the two component polymers. Scanning electron microscopy proved that addition of PEMA into PVC changed the mor- phology of the blends. The shifts in Fourier transform infrared bands and X-ray diffraction peaks together with the presence of a single Tg suggest that the blends are partially miscible. The blend with 35 wt % PEMA seems to be the most suitable candidate for use as polymer host in polymer electrolyte, because it has the most suitable me- chanical property and is the most amorphous blend system. This blend system also has the highest room temperature conductivity value of 4.74 � 10 � 10 Sc m � 1 amongst other blend systems. V C 2012 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
