Polymer gel electrolytes synthesized by dispersing nano size fumed silica in polymer gel electrolytes containing polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), ortho-hydroxy benzoic acid (o-OHBA) and dimethylacetamide (DMA) have been studied by complex impedance spectroscopy, viscosity and pH measurements. The addition of acid, polymer and fumed silica has been found to result in an increase in conductivity and viscosity of gel electrolytes and gels with conductivity higher than the corresponding liquid electrolytes have been obtained. Nano dispersed polymer gel electrolytes show conductivity 2.95 × 10−4 S cm−1 and viscosity 1.74 × 104 cP at 25 °C. Two maxima observed in the variation of conductivity of nano dispersed gels with fumed silica concentration have been assigned to the enhanced dissociation of weak acid and the formation of a high conducting interfacial region between fumed silica and gel electrolyte, respectively, which has also been supported by pH and viscosity studies. The small increase in conductivity of nano dispersed gels over the 20–100 °C temperature range and its constant value with time is suitable for devices.
