Preparation, Characterization and Electrical Study of (Carboxymethylated Polyvinyl Alcohol/ZnO) Nanocomposites

Abstract

ZnO nanostructures were synthesized in one step reaction at 80℃ without any extra treatments. (Zn(NO₃)₂.6H<SUB>2</SUB>O) and (NaOH) were used for synthesis. Production of ZnO nanostructures occurred relatively in short time. The obtained ZnO nanostructures were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD) and the atomic force microscope AFM. Carboxymethyleted PVA (CPVA) has been prepared and characterized. (CPVA) were composite with different ZnO nanoparticles concentrations. The composites are cast into films. The dielectric constant properties of the films were measured with hp LCR meter.
