This book was released on 2018 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this chapter, the Ferroelectric, Piezoelectric and Dielectric behavior of novel polymer/ceramic nano-composite (PCC) based on ferroelectric polymer [polyvinyledene fluoride (PVDF)] & nano Barium Titanate (n-BaTiO3) with different volume fractions of n-BaTiO3 (fBaTiO3), prepared through the novel cold pressing method has been discussed. The ferroelectric parameters of PCC are attributed to spherulites of PVDF, the increase of n-BaTiO3 and the ordered homogenous structure due to the novel cold pressing. The clustering of ceramic fillers is responsible for randomization of the structures of these composite ferroelectrics for some samples, leading to decrease of electrical polarisations. The piezoelectricity and piezoelectric coefficients of these composites ferroelectrics, increases with increase of ceramic filer content and remains constant beyond a certain ratio. However, the dielectric properties increase linearly as a function of ceramic content due to increase of interfaces/interfacial polarisations. The enhancement of effective dielectric constant (...õeff) is attributed to the large interfacial polarization arising due to the charge storage at the spherulites of PVDF and at the polymer/filler interfaces of PCC and have been explained on the basis of sum effect with the help of the standard models. The achieved lower loss tangent (Tan Œ¥) for the PCC as compared to the polymer/metal composites (PMC) is attributed to the highly insulating nature of PVDF & semiconducting n-BaTiO3. The thermal stability of the composites is also maintained due to the higher melting temperature (170¬∞C) of PVDF. The cold pressed PCC based on PVDF are going to act as better polymer ferroelectric/dielectrics for memory and electrical energy storage applications.

This book was released on 2017 with total page 83 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polymer Nanocomposite Materials with High Dielectric Permittivity and Low Dielectric Loss Properties by Anju Toor Doctor of Philosophy in Mechanical Engineering University of California, Berkeley Professor Tarek Zohdi, Co-chair Professor Albert P. Pisano, Co-chair Materials with high dielectric permittivity have drawn increasing interests in recent years for their important applications in capacitors, actuators, and high energy density pulsed power. Particularly, polymer-based dielectrics are excellent candidates, owing to their properties such as high breakdown strength, low dielectric loss, flexibility and easy processing. To enhance the dielectric permittivity of polymer materials, typically, high dielectric constant filler materials are added to the polymer. Previously, ferroelectric and conductive fillers have been mainly used. However, such systems suffered from various limitations. For example, composites based on ferroelectric materials like barium titanate, exhibited high dielectric loss, and poor saturation voltages. Conductive fillers are used in the form of powder aggregates, and they may show 10-100 times enhancement in dielectric constant, however these nanoparticle aggregates cause the dielectric loss to be significant. Also, agglomerates limit the volume fraction of fillers in polymer and hence, the ability to achieve superior dielectric constants. Thus, the aggregation of nanoparticles is a significant challenge to their use to improve the dielectric permittivity. We propose the use of ligand-coated metal nanoparticle fillers to enhance the dielectric properties of the host polymer while minimizing dielectric loss by preventing nanoparticle agglomeration. The focus is on obtaining uniform dispersion of nanoparticles with no agglomeration by utilizing appropriate ligands/surface functionalizations on the gold nanoparticle surface. Use of ligand coated metal nanoparticles will enhance the dielectric constant while minimizing dielectric loss, even with the particles closely packed in the polymer matrix. Novel combinations of materials, which use 5 nm diameter metal nanoparticles embedded inside high breakdown strength polymer materials are evaluated. High breakdown strength polymer materials are chosen to allow further exploration of these materials for energy storage applications. In summary, two novel nanocomposite materials are designed and synthesized, one involving polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) as the host polymer for potential applications in energy storage and the other with SU-8 for microelectronic applications. Scanning elec- tron microscopy (SEM), transmission electron microscopy (TEM), energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy and ultramicrotoming techniques were used for the material characterization of the nanocomposite materials. A homogeneous dispersion of gold nanoparticles with low particle agglomeration has been achieved. Fabricated nanoparticle polymer composite films showed the absence of voids and cracks. Also, no evidence of macro-phase separation of nanoparticles from the polymer phase was observed. This is important because nanoparticle agglomeration and phase separation from the polymer usually results in poor processability of films and a high defect density. Dielectric characterization of the nanocomposite materials showed enhancement in the dielectric constant over the base polymer values and low dielectric loss values were observed.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book illustrates interfacial properties, preparation, characterization, devices, and applications from the standpoint of nano-interfacial tailoring. Since the primary focus of the book is on the use of nanocomposite dielectrics in electrical applications, chapters are devoted to directly relevant topics, such as surface and bulk breakdown processes. However, the mechanisms that underpin such behavior are not unique. Therefore, the book also addresses related topics that range from the chemistry of polymer and nanocomposite degradation to the simulation of charge transport dynamics in disordered materials, thereby presenting a multi- and interdisciplinary approach to the area. It will serve as a practical handbook or graduate textbook and is supplemented by ample number of illustrations, case studies, practical examples, and historical perspectives.

Download or read book Polymer Ceramic Composites as Dielectric and Piezoelectric Material written by Suryakanta Nayak and published by LAP Lambert Academic Publishing. This book was released on 2013 with total page 60 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Polymer nanocomposites were prepared via room temperature mixing of polydimethylsiloxane (PDMS) and polyurethane (PU) elastomers as base matrices and titania nanoparticles (both normal and heat treated) as filler material. In case of polyurethane-titania nanocomposites two different mixing methods were used whereas polydimethylsiloxane-titania nanocomposites were prepared using two different types of titania particles, namely normal and heat treated ones. Different characterization techniques like fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD), thermogravimetric analysis (TGA), dynamic light scattering (DLS), high resolution transmission electron microscopy (HRTEM), field emission scanning electron microscopy (FESEM), and scanning probe microscopy (SPM) were used for these composites. The composition dependent electrical resistivity and dielectric properties of these composites were also measured. The effect of pressure on both DC resistivity and dielectric constant was studied for the PU-TiO2 nanocomposites and found that both resistivity and dielectric constant changes with applied pressure which is again composition dependent.
