Composites of polyaniline-polyethylene-copper were prepared using different weight percentage of nano copper particles of 100 nm size. X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy were done to identify the crystal structure of prepared polyaniline and polyaniline-polyethylene-Cu, respectively. Electrical properties for all the combinations of 5, 10, 15, 20, and 25 wt% copper were examined as electrical conductivity, capacitance, and dielectrical constant. The remarkable improvement in all the electrical properties were indicated after adding nano copper particles, accept the combination P-Ani-5 wt% Cu. Scanning electron microscopy results confirm the dispersion of nano copper particles through their microstructure.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
