Facile assembly, co-precipitation, and drop casting techniques were employed to fabricate SnO2/SrSnO3/Fe3O4/PVDF flexible nanocomposites. The inclusion of SnO2/SrSnO3/Fe3O4 nanocomposites (TSF NCs') into polyvinylidene fluoride (PF) polymers was successfully achieved, as confirmed by XRD, EDX, and ATR-FTIR analysis. FESEM and cross-section imaging demonstrated improved surface characteristics and reduced surface roughness of TSF/PF porous material. The optical gap was reduced from 3.90 to 3.07 eV, with enhanced refractive index and optical conductivity upon incorporation of TSF NCs' into PF. The dielectric properties of the nanocomposites were found to be significantly influenced by the supplement ratios, and the electrical parameters of TSF/PF nanocomposite were notably modified. Additionally, the TSF/PF magnetic nanocomposite showed good magnetic reactivity and could be easily extracted from aqueous solution using an external magnetic field, as evidenced by VSM. This research aims to obtain TSF/PF nanocomposites for promising magno-optoelectronic applications.
Facile assembly, co-precipitation, and drop casting procedures have been used to construct SnO2/SrSnO3/Fe3O4/PVDF flexible nanocomposites. SnO2/SrSnO3/Fe3O4 nanocomposites (TSF NCs') have been successfully incorporated into polyvinylidene fluoride polymers (PF), according to the microstructural exploration of the systems, which was revealed by XRD, EDX, and ATR-FTIR analysis. The FESEM and cross-section areas demonstrated that the addition of TSF NCs' to PF porous material enhanced its surface characteristics and decreased its surface roughness. The optical gap was lowered from 3.90 to 3.07 eV, and it was discovered that both the refractive index and optical conductivity had improved when TSF NCs' were incorporated into PF. According to the observations, the supplement ratios have a profound influence on the dielectric properties of the nanocomposites. Moreover, the electrical parameters of TSF/PF nanocomposite are significantly modified. The TSF/PF magnetic nanocomposite has good magnetic reactivity and can be easily extracted from the aqueous solution using an external magnetic field, as demonstrated by VSM. This research has been conducted to obtain TSF/PF nanocomposites to be used in promising magno-optoelectronic applications.
