The effect of TiO2 nanoparticles on morphology and electrical properties of PVA: NaBr composite films were carried out using various techniques. The pure and TiO2 nanoparticle doped PVA: NaBr composite films were prepared using solvent casting method. The FTIR spectral studies shows that the Ti+ ions of TiO2 interacts with hydroxyl group (OH) of PVA via hydrogen bonding and forms the charge transfer complexes (CTC). These interactions are of inter/intra molecular type and affects the surface morphology as well as the electrical properties of composite films. XRD study shows that the crystallinity of the composite increases with doping level. SEM studies shows that the increase in roughness of the surface of the composite films and uniform dispersion of nanofillers in polymer matrix. Electrical properties are analyzed using impedance analyzer and higher conductivity (10-4Scm-1) is achieved for 5 wt % TiO2 doping concentration. |
