Novel flexible polymer nanocomposite films were fabricated using casting method, with polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium alginate (NaAlg), titanium dioxide (TiO2), and graphene oxide (GO) as nanofillers. The PVA/NaAlg-GO/TiO2 nanocomposite films were characterized, and the synergistic effects of GO/TiO2 on the electrical, dielectric properties, and energy density efficiency of PVA/NaAlg blend were investigated.
In this study, novel flexible polymer nanocomposite films formed of polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), sodium alginate (NaAlg), titanium dioxide (TiO2) and graphene oxide (GO) as nanofiller are fabricated by using casting method. The PVA/NaAlg-GO/TiO2 nanocomposite films are characterized using various techniques. The synergistic effects of GO/TiO2 on the electrical, dielectric properties, and the energy density efficiency of PVA/NaAlg blend have been investigated in the range of frequency from 10 Hz to 7 MHz. The XRD data showed that the intensity of the PVA/NaAlg-GO/TiO2 nanocomposites films decrease with nanofiller concentration. The FTIR spectroscopy provides proof that the complex formed. The optical studies were carried out using UV-Vis. spectroscopy. The energy bandgap values of PVA/NaAlg-GO/TiO2 nanocomposite films were calculated using Tauc's plot. It is shown that the host matrix's E-g value decreases from 4.97 to 4.29 eV for direct transitions and from 4.37 to 2.29 eV for indirect transitions. The electrical and dielectric parameters of the nanocomposites showed that the maximum electrical properties were observed for the composite with 8 wt% loading of GO/TiO2. The s(dc) increased from 2.45 x 10(-9) to 5.02 x 10(-7) S cm(-1). In addition, frequency exponent S decreased from 0.82 to 0.54. These findings demonstrated that there are significant modifications in the fabricated samples, which open the road for utilizing the PVA/NaAlg-GO/TiO2 nanocomposite as flexible films for solar cells and electrical energy storage applications.
