Abstract

Ambient temperature alkali glassy salt mixtures, x[AlCl₃]/(1 - x)[NaN(CN)₂] (x = 0.4 - 0.75), were prepared. A large increase in the C≡N stretching frequencies for these materials indicate complex formation between the anion [N(CN)₂]^- and AlCl₃ molecule. Ab initio calculations confirm the assignments of the vibrational frequencies. The 1:1 adduct has a glass transition at 27 °C, and the glassy state persists for 4 weeks at room temperature. The room temperature ionic conductivity of this glass is 6.6 x 10^-6 S/cm, and it increases as the AlCl₃ content increases. The temperature dependence of the conductivity follows the Vogel-Tamman-Fulcher equation, suggesting that ion transport is coupled to local motion in the glassy salt mixture system.
