Abstract:Novel mullite-polymer composite films were prepared by incorporating highly crystallized nickel ion-doped mullite, which acts as filler into polyvinylidene matrix. Various analytical tools had been utilized at room temperature to study the effects of filler on microstructure, phase transformation, and electrical properties of the polymer films. X-ray diffraction spectra (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) confirm the changes of electroactive phase in polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) matrix. … Show more
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.
