Synthesis Characterization and Study of Electrical Properties of Few Polymer Nanocomposite Materials

Abstract

Polymer composites plays a very important role in the field of the electrical devices, newlinecorrosion resistance, batteries, sensor materials, EMI shielding etc. composites can be newlinesuited to any desired applications by varing the compositions of the matrix or polymeric newlinematerials. newlineNaturally occurring sources are used as a fuels for the synthesis of the nanometal oxide. newlineSuch a synthesized metal oxides are varied in weight percentages during chemical newlinepolymerized with polyaniline. Some of the polyaniline/CuCeO2 polyaniline nanofiber/ newlineY2O3, Polyaniline cellulose/ZnO composites are synthesized by varied weight percentages newlineof CuCeO2, Y2O3, ZnOrespectively. Efforts are also implicated to synthesize the Cellulose newlinetriacetate thin walled carbon nanotubes and pani Gel/AgCl composites are synthesized by newlinevarying the weight percentages of AgCl. newlineSynthesized above composites are characterized by UV-vis, FTIR and XRD to analyse the newlineformation of polymer and their interactions with metal oxides. Morphology is the main newlineproperty of the composites to study the surface property of the polymer how it is forming newlinethe surface with metal oxide is studied by SEM and TEM. Few of the composites are also newlinestudied with the thermal analysis. Each characterization, morphological and thermal newlineanalysis are discussed for representative composite materials in synopsis remaining newlineanalysis are discussed in the thesis. newlineThe property of the characterized composites are also studied with the Electrical properties newlinelike AC and DC conductivity. And their detailed analysis are also exploited newline
