Abstract
abstract In recent years, electronic devices with trendy flexibility and compatibility have become the competitive alternative to conventional electronics. In the present work, flexible polymer nanocomposite films composed of poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene), iron oxide, and strontium titanate (PVDF-HFP/SrTiO3/Fe2O3) were synthesized by the solution-casting method. The formation and structural features of this composite material have been analyzed by X-Ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), Thermogravimetric (TGA), and SEM. SEM results confirm the homogeneous dispersion of SrTiO3 and Fe2O3 within the host polymer. The uniform dispersion of the embedded metal species enhances the dielectric values up to 462 on optimization with infused rigidity. The impedance studies of PVDF-HFP/SrTiO3/Fe2O3 were performed in the temperature region of 50–150 °C at various frequencies ranging from 50 Hz to 10 MHz and the AC conductivity studies suggested that synthesized polymer nanocomposite shows higher conductivity with the maximum conductivity value was 8.20 × 10−3S/m. Polymer nanocomposite films with large dielectric constant and minimum dielectric loss are highly recommendable for flexible energy storage applications. Also, rapid development of novel material for flexible electronics is in great demand, which suggests it is an alternate source for future energy storage application.
