Abstract:Current research elaborates theoretical and experimental investigations on SnO2:Zr added PVDF nanocomposites. The electronic and optical properties of Zr doped SnO2 are studied using the Wien2k code. After obtaining a good optical response of SnO2 at various Zr concentrations, thin films of PVDF-SnO2:Zr nanocomposites are prepared using the co-precipitation method. SEM analysis of SnO2:Zr reveals agglomerated nanoparticles with hollow regions, while nanofiller added PVDF shows acicular smooth morphology, which… Show more
