Abstract

This paper described the synthesis of lead(II)sulfide (PbS) based nanocomposite on polyvinyl alcohol/magnesium-aluminum–layered double hydroxide (PVA/Mg-Al-LDH) composite film by a successive ionic layer adsorption and reaction (SILAR) method. To characterize the prepared sample was carried out using X-ray powder diffraction analysis (XRD), Ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) spectroscope, Scanning electron microscope (SEM), Energy-dispersive X-ray (EDX) spectroscope, and Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscope was used. The optical absorption study confirmed when the PbS nanoparticles are dispersed in the PVA polymer matrix, they can well fit the interstitial spaces between the polymer chains and thus an increase in the optical conductivity.
