Investigation on dielectric properties of the polyetherketone nanocomposite with lead titanate ultrafines
The dielectric properties of polymer composites with inorganic nanoparticles were investigated. In the demonstration of the dielectric constant expression of the nanocomposite polymer, the dielectric contributions of the displacement polarization, the orientation polarization, and the space polarization in the nanocomposite polymer were all considered. In the demonstration, two dielectric relaxation models were used, that of Debye for inorganic nanoparticles and the HavriliakNegami function model for polymers. Then the expression of the complex dielectric constant of the nanocomposite polymer was obtained by using Onsager's local field theory. Furthermore, the nanocomposite polymer thin films that consist of PbTiO3 nanoparticles and polyetherketone were prepared. The real parts of the dielectric constants were measured and calculated, respectively. It was found that our calculated results are in good agreement with our measured results.
