The dielectric investigations of porous synthetic silica gel modified with polyaniline (PANI) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) polyblend at various concentrations are demonstrated in this paper. By using the chemical oxidative process to embed polyaniline (PANI) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) into a silica matrix, conducting gel nanocomposites were synthesized. For various dopant concentrations, the dielectric permittivity (ε′), D.C. conductivity (σdc), loss tangent (tanδ) and dielectric loss (ε″) were investigated. The samples were characterized using differential thermal analysis/thermogravimetric analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy and high-resolution transmission electron microscopy. Depending on the co-blend content, PANI-PEG modified silica structures produce nanoparticles ranging in size from 9.9 to 48.1 nm. The variation of DC conductivity (σdc) with PANI/PEG content shows Maxwell-Wagner Sillars (MWS) effect confirming the role of the conjugation and the structural order. 相似文献
In this study, a series of [3-(2-aminoethyl)amino]propyl-heptaisobutyl substituted polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (AHIP) containing polyimide (PI) nanocomposites were successfully prepared. Structural, thermal and electrical properties of the polyimide nanocomposites were studied. The properties of AHIP containing polyimides were compared with those of the neat polyimide films. The surface morphology of the prepared AHIP containing polyimides were determined by using Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM). The hydrophilic/hydrophobic nature of AHIP/polyimide composites were analyzed by measuring their water contact angles. It was found that the addition of AHIP into the polyimide slightly increased the contact angle values. The incorporation of 5% AHIP to the PI matrix decreased the dielectric constant value of pure PI from 8.6 to 11.7, respectively. Furthermore he dielectric permittivity was changed from 8.6 (neat polyimide) to 5.5 (PI3). 相似文献
Iron oxide (α‐Fe2O3) nanocrystals powder was successfully synthesized via the sol‐gel method. The microstructural examination of the synthesized nanocrystals confirmed the formation of α‐Fe2O3 (hematite) structure using X‐ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared. The synthesized nano‐hematite powder with different weight percentage up to 5 wt% was introduced to polyvinyl chloride (PVC) to fabricate PVC/Fe2O3 nanocomposites using the solution‐cast technique. The dielectric spectroscopic analysis for the investigated samples has been studied at room temperature and at different temperatures up to 120°C. The real part of the permittivity (ε′) exhibited a significant dependence on filler concentrations throughout whole temperature range. However, the dependency of both of the loss tangent (tanδ ) and AC conductivity (σac) on filler concentrations is more pronounced at temperatures higher than room temperature. The obtained values of tan δ for the investigated nancomposites referred to the α‐relaxation around 70°C, which is close to glass transition temperature of the investigated PVC. The dependency of the dielectric strength on Fe2O3 nanofiller concentration was observed with enhancement in the dielectric strength reach to 20.5% for PVC/0.7 wt% Fe2O3 nanocomposite higher than the recorded value for the pristine PVC. 相似文献
Summary: This investigation presents a simultaneous and convenient approach to produce a high‐performance polyimide with a low dielectric constant by introducing the octa‐acrylated polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxane (methacrylated‐POSS) into a polyimide matrix to form polyimide semi‐interpenetrating polymer network (semi‐IPN) nanocomposites. The differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and Fourier‐transform infrared (FT‐IR) results indicate that the self‐curing of methacrylated‐POSS and the imidization of polyamic acid (PAA) occurs simultaneously. The morphology of a semi‐IPN structure of polyimide/POSS‐PI/POSS nanocomposites with POSS nanoparticles embedded inside the matrix is elucidated. The POSS particles are uniform and are aggregated to a size of approximately 50–60 nm inside the polyimide matrix. The interconnected POSS particles are observed at high POSS content. The structure is highly cross‐linked, so the PI/POSS nanocomposites have an enhanced glass transition temperature. The high porosity of the PI/POSS nanocomposites markedly reduces the dielectric constant of PI because of the nanometer‐scale porous structure of POSS.

Inorganic dielectrics encapsulated in an organic matrix are showing excellent promise as novel dielectric materials. In this work, firstly highly organized crystalline nanoparticles of rutile TiO2 were synthesized by acid hydrolysis of titanium isopropoxide at room temperature. Then we developed a novel dielectric material consisting of highly organized rutile TiO2/polyaniline (PAni) nanocomposites by in-situ chemical oxidative polymerization. The structural, morphological, conducting, and dielectric properties of the rutile TiO2/PAni nanoparticles have been evaluated by X-ray diffraction (XRD), scanning electron microscopy (SEM), high resolution-transmission emission microscopy (HR-TEM), four-point probe technique, CV (Capacitance versus Voltage), and Impedance analyzer. The nanocomposites show 70 times higher permittivity compared to rutile nanoparticles and much higher compared to anatase/PAni (ES) nanocomposites at 10 MHz. Large interfacial polarizations, nanostructure, and dopant levels are the key factors for the large dielectric constant of the nanocomposites. The rutile/PAni (ES) nanocomposites might see potential uses in super-capacitors, gate dielectric in transistors, and capacitive-type gas sensors. 相似文献
Summary: Macroporous monoliths consisting of silica nanoparticles embedded in poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) were synthesized in supercritical CO2. Well‐dispersed silica particles, pretreated with functional 3‐(trimethoxysilyl)propyl methacrylate (MPS), were to form colloidal PMMA nanocomposites followed by a sol‐gel transition forming interconnected structures resulting in micron‐sized pores with specific areas between 1 and 7 m2 · g−1. SEM and TEM results revealed uniform morphological characteristics of the composite materials and good dispersions of the silica nanoparticles.

Lanthanum (La) supported on tin oxide‐titanium oxide (SnO2‐TiO2 ) nanoparticles were prepared by a sol–gel method followed by a hydrothermal method. Effect of different solvents (ethyl acetate, benzyl alcohol, ethylene glycol) on the particle size and catalytic activity was investigated. The nanomaterial was characterized by transmission electron microscopy, powder X‐ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, and energy dispersive X‐ray. The catalytic and optical properties were studied using solid‐phase spectrophotometry and ultraviolet–visible spectroscopy, respectively. Gas chromatography‐mass spectrometry (GC‐MS) was used to detect the intermediates during the catalytic degradation of methylene blue. It was observed that with decrease in the dielectric constant (ε) of the solvent, the bandgap and particle size decrease and catalytic efficiency increases. Hence, the highest catalytic activity was observed with the solvent having the least dielectric constant. 相似文献
