Nanocomposite films comprised of poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) and carboxymethylcellulose (CMC) were fabricated via a solution casting procedure, with the incorporation of (1-x)CuCo2O4/xZnMn2O4. Our research described here was aimed to explore the impact of the (1-x)CuCo2O4/xZnMn2O4 on the structural, optical and electrical features of the PVA/CMC blended polymer, using various techniques. The different phases formed (CuCo2 O4 and/or ZnMn2O4) in (1-x) CuCo2O4/x ZnMn2O4 filler samples were identified applying Rietveld refinement analysis. The structures and morphologies of the PVA/CMC/(1-x)CuCo2O4/xZnMn2O4 blend composites were determined using X-ray diffraction and scanning electron microscopy techniques. Their various linear and nonlinear optical parameters were examined using the diffused reflectance technique. The blended polymer composite with x = 0.1 displayed the highest absorbance. The transmittance of the PVA/CMC blend declined from 91 to 69% when it was loaded with a nanocomposite containing 10% ZnMn2O4. The optical band gaps of the doped blend composites had their lowest values, 5.45 eV for direct transition and (4.83, 2.99, 2.31) eV for the indirect transition, as the blend was loaded with the fillers containing 10 and 15% ZnMn2O4. The study also explored the influence of the (1-x)CuCo2O4/x ZnMn2O4 on the fluorescence spectra and chromaticity diagram of the PVA/CMC blend. The effect of the filler on the complex dielectric constant, complex electric modulus, ac conductivity and electrical storage energy of the host blend was examined. The obtained characteristics imply potential utility of the doped blends in photocatalytic, UV-blocking, UV-filtering, optoelectronic, electrical storage, nonlinear optical and photonic applications.
