ESR and XRD investigation of effects induced by gamma radiation on PVA-TiO2 membranes

Abstract: Abstract:The effects of gamma radiation on the local structure of PVA membranes containing TiO 2 were investigated by ESR and XRD methods. An intense ESR signal is observed after irradiation at 16 KGy dose. This signal appears only for irradiated samples and it is associated with the breaking of the polymeric chain, followed by local reorganization of the polymeric segments and the apparition of the unpaired electrons and free radicals. The intensity of the signal decreases with the concentration of TiO 2 , in… Show more

“…This supposition is in agreement with the model proposed by Kainuma and French, suggesting that glucose polymers form double helices upon addition of water [29]. The effect is the decrease of interplanar distances [30,31]. The intense peaks at 2 = 15.3 ∘ , 17.4 ∘ , and 18.3 ∘ of pure starch are missing in the spectra of samples P1-P3, but we can see a peak at 2 = 16.9 ∘ .…”

“…84–1286 and 88–1175). [ 31,32 ] These overall peaks show that the crystalline nature of PVA decreases with addition of TiO 2 . [ 15 ] The appearance of this new peak might be due to dissociation of PVA, and TiO 2 particles during the stirring process.…”

“…Figure . 3. shows a clear and distinct peak from UV-A range, this peak correlated to the electronic transition highest occupied and lowest unoccupied molecular orbital's (HOMO-LUMO). Furthermore, the dispersed HNTs undergo exfoliation and being a reason to form tough peak at 340 nm which may be regarded due to strong interaction between HNT and carbonyl groups of PC [71,72]. Eventually the NCs exhibits hypsochromic shift with the increase in conjugation between HNT and PC indicating the inter chain interaction and stacking.…”
