Hydrazine monohydrate, N2H2·H2O is used as the reducing agent in synthesising ReGO from graphene oxide (GO). Methylcellulose-NH4Br-ReGO based electrolytes are prepared using solution cast method. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis provides the evidence of interaction between the materials. Introduction of 0.3 wt ReGO has maximized the conductivity of electrolyte up to (9.00 ± 0.38) � 10�4 S cm�1. From transport analysis, the conductivity is found to be influenced by the number density (n) and mobility (μ) of ion. Conductivity result is supported by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM) analysis. Ionic transference number (tion) of the highest conducting electrolyte is found to be 0.94, thus confirming ions as the dominant charge carriers. The highest conducting electrolyte shows a potential stability up to 1.7 V. © 2024 Elsevier B.V. date: 2024 official_url: https://www.scopus.com/inward/record.uri?eid=2-s2.0-85187784182&doi=10.1016%2fj.mseb.2024.117313&partnerID=40&md5=88b73655588a516c7ba937caa65d0587 id_number: 10.1016/j.mseb.2024.117313 full_text_status: none publication: Materials Science and Engineering: B volume: 303 refereed: TRUE citation: Hamsan, M.H. and Azli, A.A. and Aziz, S.B. and Shamsuri, N.A. and Kadir, M.F.Z. and Nazri, N.S. and Keng, L.K. and Zaid, H.F.M. and Shukur, M.F.
