- MakaleAçık Erişim2026Scopus SJRQ3Investigation of Dielectric Constant and Electrical Conductivity of Poly(MA-co-MMA)/Ce(NO3)3 Composites by Response Surface Methodology for Advanced Dielectric Applications
Torgut, Gulben; Incesu, Rabia
In this study, poly(maleic anhydride-co-methyl methacrylate) [poly(MA-co-MMA)] copolymer and their Ce(NO3)3-filled composites were synthesized and systematically investigated. The copolymer was prepared via free radical polymerization using azobisisobutyronitrile (AIBN) as the initiator in 1,4-dioxane medium. Poly(MA-co-MMA)/Ce(NO3)3 composites were fabricated through a solution mixing technique in accordance with the response surface methodology (RSM) design. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) results indicated that no significant chemical interaction occurred between the polymer molecule and Ce(NO3)3 particles. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) images revealed a relatively uniform dispersion of Ce(NO3)3 particles within the polymer, resulting in a rougher surface with increasing filler content and that aggregation occurs at 20 wt%. The presence of Ce(NO3)3 particles in the polymer was confirmed by x-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis. The effects of frequency, applied voltage, and Ce(NO3)3 content on dielectric constant (epsilon) and electrical conductivity (sigma) were optimized using RSM, and the significance of these parameters was evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA). An increase in Ce(NO3)3 content significantly enhanced the electrical conductivity, while the applied voltage exhibited no statistically significant effect on dielectric properties. ANOVA results identified Ce(NO3)3 content as the most influential parameter in the developed model.

The poly(4-methacryloyloxyphenyl-4'-methoxystyryl ketone-co-methyl methacrylate) [P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)] was synthesized using a free radical copolymerization method at 60 °C. The composition of the copolymer was estimated by 1H-NMR. The nanocomposites of P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)-loaded 9 and 11 wt% nanographene (NG) were produced using the ultrasonic homogenizer sonicator. The FT-IR, 1H-NMR, GPC, TGA, XRD, and SEM techniques were used to characterize the copolymer and composites. The thermal behavior of P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA) partially heated up to 270, 310, 340, and 380 °C was investigated by FT-IR analysis. A six-membered anhydride ring in the copolymer backbone formed at 340 °C and higher temperatures. TG measurements were used to analyze the thermal decomposition processes of pure P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA) and P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)/NG 11 wt% composite. Apparent activation energies for thermal decomposition of P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)/NG 11 wt% were determined using the Flynn–Wall–Ozawa (FWO) and Kissinger–Akahira–Sunose (KAS) methods at a temperature range of 200 and 400 °C for a weight loss of approximately 70%. The average activation energies determined from the FWO and KAS methods were 86.3 and 80.3 kJ/mol, respectively. The dielectric and electrical behaviors of the P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA) and P(MPMESK0.25-co-MMA)/NG 11 wt% composite were investigated at room temperature. The dc activation energy for dc conductivity of nanocomposite was calculated as 1.092 eV. Optical properties such as absorption, reflectance, refractive index, absorption edge, direct band gap of the copolymer, and composites were investigated from their optical examinations in the wavelength region of 200–800 nm. It was found that the optical energy gap values had shifted to the lower energies with the doping of NG.

İncele - MakaleAçık Erişim2026Scopus SJRQ2Oxidative polycondensation of phenylhydrazine-based Schiff base: structural, thermal, optical and dielectric investigations
Kaya, İsmet; Bayır, Erdal; Solmaz, Adnan
In this study, the Schiff base 3-((2-phenylhydrazono)methyl)benzene-1,2-diol (3-PHMB) was synthesized through a condensation reaction between 2,3-dihydroxybenzaldehyde (2,3-DHBA) and phenylhydrazine (PH). The obtained Schiff base was subsequently subjected to oxidative polymerization in a 10% KOH (w/v) aqueous medium using hydrogen peroxide (35% H₂O₂), sodium hypochlorite (6–14% NaOCl), and oxygen (O₂) as oxidants, yielding the oligomers o-(3-PHMB)-P, o-(3-PHMB)-H, and o-(3-PHMB)-O. The structural, morphological, thermal, optical, and electrochemical characteristics of the synthesized compounds were comprehensively investigated using FT-IR, NMR, SEM, TG-DTA, UV-Vis, CV, and GPC techniques. UV-Vis and CV analyses revealed that the optical band gaps (Eg) were 2.33 eV for 3-PHMB, 2.06 eV for o-(3-PHMB)-P, 2.16 eV for o-(3-PHMB)-H, and 2.02 eV for o-(3-PHMB)-O, while the electrochemical band gaps (Eg′) were calculated as 2.03 eV, 1.65 eV, 1.63 eV, and 1.50 eV, respectively. Thermal analysis showed that the char yields at 1000 °C were 41.43% for o-(3-PHMB)-P, 38.72% for o-(3-PHMB)-H, and 44.35% for o-(3-PHMB)-O. Dielectric measurements indicated that o-(3-PHMB)-O exhibited higher polarization capacity and energy storage ability compared to the other oligomers. Moreover, the electrical conductivity values increased steadily with frequency; at 100 kHz, the conductivity was recorded as 1.74 × 10⁻⁵ S cm⁻¹ for o-(3-PHMB)-O and 1.64 × 10⁻⁵ S cm⁻¹ for o-(3-PHMB)-P. These findings demonstrate that the synthesized Schiff base oligomers are promising candidates for dielectric and optoelectronic applications due to their high thermal stability, controlled molecular weight distribution, and semiconducting properties.

Solmaz, Adnan; Çakmak, Reşit; Kaya, İsmet
Schiff base derivatives, namely 3-(((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene)amino)-1-phenyl-1-pyrazole-5-one (3-APPHNA) and 4-(((2-hydroxynaphthalen-1-yl)methylene)amino)-1,5-dimethyl-2-phenyl-1H-pyrazol-3-one (4-APPHNA), were synthesized via the condensation reaction of 3-amino-1-phenyl-2-pyrazolin-5-one (3-APP) and 4-amino-2,3-dimethyl-1-phenyl-3-pyrazolin-5-one, (4-APP) with 2-hydroxynaphthaldehyde (2-HNA) in ethanol. Synthesized monomers were then converted into their oligomeric derivatives via oxidative polycondensation carried out using NaOCl. The structural, thermal, optical, electrochemical, and morphological properties of the obtained monomers were comprehensively characterized using fourier transform infrared (FT-IR), proton nuclear magnetic resonance (1H-NMR), carbon-13 nuclear magnetic resonance (13C-NMR), ultraviolet-visible spectrophotometer (UV–vis), thermogravimetry-derivative thermogravimetry (TG-DTG), and cyclic voltammetric analyses. Spectroscopic studies confirmed the successful synthesis of Schiff bases and the presence of stable azomethine bonds. Molecular weight, glass transition temperature, and surface morphologies of oligomers were determined by gel permeation chromatography (GPC), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and field emission scanning electron microscope (FE-SEM) measurements, respectively. The Mn values of oligo(3-APPHNA) and oligo(4-APPHNA) were found to be 3400 and 2900 Da, respectively. The results revealed an oxidative oligomerization process yielding relatively narrow molecular weight distributions. Oligo(4-APPHNA) has shown more pronounced semiconductor properties compared to other oligomers, considering its 2.30 eV optical band gap and frequency-dependent electrical behavior. Additionally, dielectric measurements showed that oligo(4-APPHNA) exhibited higher dielectric constant, dielectric loss, and AC conductivity values throughout the investigated frequency range. These findings suggest that the synthesized oligomers are promising candidate materials for future optoelectronic and semiconductor applications, but further research at the device level is needed.

Barim, Esra
In this study, poly(2,2,2-trifluoroethyl methacrylate) homopolymer (PTFEMA) was synthesized via free radical polymerization method, and its composites with graphite oxide (GO) were prepared to improve its dielectric and thermal properties. Thermogravimetric evaluation revealed that graphite oxide acts to limit thermal diffusion throughout the PTFEMA loaded graphite oxide (GO) composite, and hence, thermal stability of composites improved. While the initial decomposition temperature of pure PTFEMA was found to be 233°C from thermogravimetric analysis measurements, the initial decomposition temperature of PTFEMA containing 5 wt% graphite oxide was found to be 251°C. The glass transition temperatures of the composites increased from 76°C to 86°C due to the increase in the amount of graphite oxide added to PTFEMA. The dielectric properties of composites were investigated from 100 Hz to 10 kHz for different temperatures. While the dielectric constant, ε′, of pure PTFEMA at 1 kHz at room temperature was found to be 3.00, that of the PTFEMA containing 5 wt% GO was found 10.32. Therefore, graphite oxide doped PTFEMA composites may be suitable candidates for energy storage applications. The dc conductivity and dielectric loss factor of PTFEMA containing 5 wt% graphite oxide were seen to increase with temperature.

The Ti3C2Tx MXene nanosheet was prepared by 40% (v/v) hydrofluoric acid etching at 20 °C for 48 h and delamination of bulk MAX Ti3AlC2 precursor material. A 2D nanomaterial MXene Ti3C2Tx as a nanofiller was introduced to polysulfone (PSulfone) matrix. MXene and PSulfone/MXene nanocomposite systems were characterized by X-ray diffraction, scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscope, Fourier-transform infrared and thermogravimetric analysis instruments. Dielectric and electrical characterization of PSulfone/MXene nanocomposite was carried out. The electrical resistance of Ti3C2Tx MXene from measurement current (I)–voltage (V) was measured as 116 Ω. Pure PSulfone matrix exhibits typical insulator behavior, and MXene exhibits a good conductor behavior. But, when MXene was added to the pure PSulfone matrix, the resistance of the MXene/PSulfone nanocomposite increased moderately compared to that of pure MXene. In spite of the excess of surface functional groups, MXene showed surprisingly good electron transport across the surface, while in the case of PSulfone/MXene nanocomposite, the insulating behavior of PSulfone significantly reduced the electron transport of MXene. The semiconductor behavior of PSulfone/Ti3C2Tx MXene nanocomposite indicates that MXene provides efficient charge carrier transfer in the nanocomposite system. By comparing the TGA results between the PSulfone and different weight ratios of PSulfone/Ti3C2Tx MXene nanocomposites, it was determined that MXene nanosheets had a significant effect in slightly accelerating the thermal degradation of PSulfone. Optical conductivity was investigated by preparing a film of PSulfone/MXene nanocomposite on an interdigital contact. It was observed that the optical current values changed depending on the increasing illumination intensity. Considering current–voltage measurements, the photocurrent generation potential of PSulfone/MXene nanocomposite shows that it can be used in photodevice production.

Polyaniline-carbon dot (CD/PANI) composites were prepared via in-situ oxidative polymerization of aniline in the presence of carbon dots, with specific concentrations carefully controlled during synthesis. The composite was characterized using spectroscopic (FT-IR), morphological (TEM, SEM) and electrical methods. Impedance analysis was employed to investigate the transport behavior of charge carriers in the frequency range of 500 Hz to 10 MHz at 25 °C. This study provides a comprehensive analysis of the dielectric properties of the CD/PANI composite, including dielectric constant, dielectric loss, loss factor, AC conductivity, admittance, impedance, and Cole–Cole plots. The dielectric constant of the CD/PANI composite was 6.97 for 1 kHz at 0.5 V and 12.87 for 1 kHz at 5 V. The values indicate that the increase in the dielectric constant of nanocomposite with increasing voltage. This suggests that CD/PANI composite is a dielectric material whose dielectric constants are controlled by applied voltage. Notably, the dielectric constant increased with rising applied voltage and decreased with increasing frequency. Current-voltage (I-V) measurements revealed that the composite's dielectric parameters could be tuned by varying the applied DC voltage, suggesting its potential as a voltage-dependent dielectric (VDD) material for capacitor applications. Furthermore, the enhanced electrical conductivity indicates that the CD/PANI composite is a promising candidate for next-generation dielectric devices.

In this work, a new copolymer synthesis of Poly(acetoxystyrene-co-glycidylmethacrylate) (P[AOS-co-GMA]) by free radical polymerization (FRP) method is reported. The polymer composites (P[AOS-co-GMA]/graphene), containing different amounts of graphene, were prepared by the solution casting technique. Composites of Poly(acetoxystyrene-co-glycidylmethacrylate) loaded with 2.03 mass%, 5.00 mass%, 7.97 mass%, and 10 mass% graphene. The structure of AOS-GMA systems was characterized by fourier transform infrared, 1H-NMR and scanning electron microscopy. Thermal features were evaluated by the thermogravimetric analysis and differential scanning calorimetry. The aim of this study is to optimize the ε′ (dielectric constant) and ε′′ (dielectric loss factor) of pure polymer and graphene-doped (2.03-5-7.97-10 mass%) P(AOS-co-GMA) composite using response surface methodology. For optimization of the process and creation of the mathematical model, the central composite design package was used. The significance of the process parameters in the model was evaluated by analysis of variance (ANOVA) research. The effects of process parameters, frequency (Hz), voltage (V), and graphene ratio (mass%) on ε′ and ε′′ were examined at ambient temperature. The maximum ε″ value (8.01) was reached at around the 699 Hz frequency and at 11.43 V voltage at the graphene content of 9.82 mass%. The model estimated the maximum value of the ε′′ (0.08) when the frequency was set at 51.20, the voltage was fixed at 1.16 and the graphene content was fixed at 9.97 wt%. The ANOVA results showed that frequency and graphene content were the main model parameters and had a remarkable effect on the dielectric properties. This article presents the development of a new polymeric composite and optimize effect of process parameters, such as frequency (A), voltage (B) and amount of graphene (C).

In this study, the electrical, thermal, morphological and physical properties of polyhydroxyalkanoate (PHA) and polylactic acid (PLA) blends and its nanocomposites prepared in different content of montmorillonite (3%wt, 5%wt, 7%wt) were investigated. Biodegradable blends of PHA/PLA were prepared in different compositions ranging from 30–70%. Nanocomposite films were analyzed by Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR), Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA), Differential Thermal Analysis (DTA) and scanning electron microscopy for morphology (SEM). The effects of the amount of MMT used as a reinforcing filler on the morphology, color, opacity, thermal stability, and dielectric properties of PHA/PLA films were investigated. SEM analyses showed good interaction between MMT and PHA/PLA film. As the MMT concentration increases, the transparency of the films decreases. In addition, MMT has improved thermal stability. Also, the dielectric properties and electrical conductivity of nanocomposite films were studied. The measurements were performed at frequencies between 100 Hz to 10 kHz at room temperature. As the frequency increased, dielectric permittivity (έ), the dielectric loss (ε'') and the electrical conductivity (σ) decreased and remain constant at high frequencies. έ, ε'' and the σ increased with increasing MMT content.

In the available research, firstly a new 3-acetamido phenyl acrylate (APhA) monomer and a novel copolymer containing acetamido phenyl group were synthesized. 3-acetamido phenyl acrylate (APhA) monomer was acquired by the reaction of acryloyl chloride and N-(3-hydroxyphenyl) acetamide. 3-acetamido propyl methacrylate (AAPMA) monomer was prepared in our previous study. A series of copolymers were prepared using these monomers in different mole ratios by free-radical polymerization method at 70 °C The structure of P(AAPMA-co-APhA) copolymer systems was characterized by FT-IR and NMR techniques. Thermal characteristics of P(AAPMA-co-APhA) copolymers were evaluated through thermogravimetric analysis (TGA) and differential scanning calorimeter (DSC) in an N2 atmosphere. Due to the presence of the amide group, we can say that the polymer with the least weight loss and the highest residue percentage at 500 °C is poly(APhA). AC electrical conductivity and dielectric and electrical parameters were analyzed in a range of 100 Hz–20 kHz frequency. The dielectric constant values of poly(AAPMA-co-APhA0.63) and P(AAPMA-co-APhA0.30) were 4.98 and 4.57 respectively. According to the results, the dielectric value decreased as the APhA units increased.

2-Hydroxy-3-(1-naphthyloxy)propyl methacrylate (NOPMA) monomer was synthesized from reaction of 2-[(2-naphthyloxy)methyl]oxirane with methacrylic acid in the presence of pyridine. The polymerization of NOPMA was carried out by free radical polymerization method in the presence of AIBN at 60 A degrees C. The structure of monomer and polymer was characterized by H-1-NMR, C-13-NMR and FT-IR spectroscopy techniques. The glass transition temperature and average-molecular weights of poly(NOPMA) were measured using differential scanning calorimetry and gel permeation chromatography, respectively. The thermal degradation behavior of poly(NOPMA) has been investigated by FT-IR studies of the partially degraded polymer and thermogravimetry. The cold ring fractions (CRFs) were collected at two different temperatures, initially fraction-1 (CRF1) is from room temperature to 320 A degrees C, and the other fraction-2 (CRF2) is from 320 to 500 A degrees C. The volatile products of the degradation were trapped at -195 A degrees C (in liquid nitrogen). All the fractions were characterized by FT-IR, H-1 and C-13-NMR spectroscopic techniques, and the cold ring fractions (CRFs) were also characterized by GC-MS. For the degradation of polymer, the major compound between products of CRFs is alpha-naphthol. The GC-MS, FT-IR and NMR data showed that depolymerization corresponding to monomer was not prominent below 320 A degrees C in the thermal degradation of poly(NOPMA). The mode of thermal degradation containing formation of the major products was identified. The dielectric permittivity (epsilon'), the loss factor (epsilon aEuro(3)) and conductivity (sigma(ac)) were measured using a dielectric analyzer in the frequency range of 50 Hz to 20 kHz.
