In this study, gel polymer electrolytes (GPEs) system is prepared by the solution cast technique. The system consists of cellulose acetate (CA) as a host polymer, lithium bis(trifluoromethanesulfonyl)imide (LiTFSI) as a dopant salt and diethylene glycol dibutylether (BDG) from glyme based family as a plasticizer. GPEs (65 wt. % CA–25 wt. % LiTFSI–10 wt. % BDG) sample is the highest conductivity of 2.88×10−3 S.cm−1 at room temperature. The lithiumelectrolyte interfaced stability is established and the highest ionic conducting electrolyte is able to withstand up to 3.8V vs Li/Li+. © 2016 Trans Tech Publications, Switzerland.
