Abstract:
Dielectric properties of poly(vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) based nanocomposites filled with surface hydroxylated BaTiO(3) (h-BT) nanoparticles were reported. The h-BT fillers were prepared from crude BaTiO(3) (c-BT) in aqueous solution of H(2)O(2). Results showed that the dielectric properties of the h-BT/PVDF nanocomposites had weaker temperature and frequency dependences than that of c-BT/PVDF nanocomposites. Meanwhile, the h-BT/PVDF composites showed lower loss tangent and higher dielectric strength. It is suggested that the strong interaction between h-BT fillers and PVDF matrix is the main reason for the improved dielectric properties.
