Abstract

Fe3O4@SiO2 (FS) nanocomposite was synthesized through the co-precipitation method and utilized as a filler material in the polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrix to obtain PVA/iron oxide@silica Fe3O4@SiO2 (PFS) films. This study presents the synthesis and characterization of flexible polymer nanocomposites comprising polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) matrices embedded with iron oxide @ silica. Through the analysis of the composite, we observed a significant enhancement in the thermal stability of the nanocomposites with increasing Fe3O4@SiO2 content. X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra have been used to provide more information about the chemical state and electronic structure of the polymer film. Dielectric spectroscopy revealed notable improvements in electrical properties, including increased real electric modulus and permittivity. Mechanical investigation showed an improvement in the tensile strength, meanwhile, Young's modulus has improved from 341.2 to 1789.8 MPa, indicating that (PVA) and FS successfully complexed and interacted strongly. These findings underscore the potential of these nanocomposites for high-performance applications in energy storage devices and other fields requiring robust dielectric materials.
