Polymer Composites with Inorganic Nanofillers for Device Applications

Zusatztext

The feasibility of incorporating different inorganic fillers, such as nanocrystalline zinc oxide (ZnO), cadmium sulfide (CdS) and Calcium copper titanate, CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) in PVDF polymer matrix to form a composite film with suitable optical, electrical and dielectric properties, conducive to device applications has been explored. These polymer composites would usher new hope, which could be exploited as structural energy storing devices, where matrix and fillers synergistically undertake the roles of structural support and energy storage. The prospects of utilizing PVDF/CdS composites can also be explored to expand the use of the composites as photovoltaic (PV) device applications.
