Abstract

A nanocomposite based on high-density polyethylene with barium titanate (content of 13 – 15 wt. %) was obtained as a result of low-temperature synthesis of the inorganic component directly in the mesopores of an oriented polymer matrix using the sol-gel method followed by hydrothermal treatment in an alkaline medium. Crystallization of barium titanate in nanopores is detected by X-ray phase analysis and electron microscopy to occur mainly in a cubic crystalline modification with an average crystallite size of 16 nm and to form chain structures. A comparative assessment of the dielectric properties of a polymer nanocomposite and powder barium titanate synthesized under similar conditions is carried out.
