Tailoring Structural, Optical, and Dielectric Properties of PVC/PMMA/PS/ZnO Nanocomposites for Capacitive Energy Storage Applications

Abstract

Using a conventional casting method, flexible polymeric film nanocomposites composed of PMMA (polymethyl methacrylate), PS (polystyrene), PVC (polyvinyl chloride) and ZnO nanoparticles were synthesized. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy identified distinct peaks corresponding to vibrational groups in the prepared samples. Upon doping the PVC/PMMA/PS blend with varying concentrations of ZnO NPs (2.5–10 wt%), most absorption intensities tend to diminish progressively as the ZnO contents have been increased to 5 wt%. Changes in FTIR vibrational bands indicated interactions between the PVC/PMMA/PS/ZnO nanocomposite constituents. The XRD patterns of the ZnO NPs-based composites have exhibited the same…
