Popis: |
The n-type semiconductor SnO2 nanoparticles were synthesised using standard route and the effect of this nanoparticle doping on structural, morphological and thermal properties of PVA-PVP polymer blend has been investigated. Pure and PVA-PVP/SnO2 Nanocomposite films were prepared using solution casting technique. The powder X-ray diffraction result shows that the crystalline nature of the blend increases with doping level. FESEM study shows that the surface morphology of the polymer nanocomposite varies with doping level. AFM study reveals that in the nanocomposite films, the average roughness changes with dopant concentration. The DSC studies on the samples were performed from 40°C to 400°C under nitrogen atmosphere and it shows that the thermal properties of the blend changes with doping concentration. |
