Partially phosphorylated polyvinyl alcohol (PPVA) with aluminum phosphate (ALPO4) composites was synthesized by solution casting technique to produce(PPVA)100-y-(ALPO4)y(y = 0, 1, and 2). The surface structure and thermal properties of the films were characterized using Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy and thermogravimetric analysis (TGA). The results showed that the films have higher thermal stability with strong bonding between PPVA and ALPO4.

In this critical review chapter, the authors explain the development of composite films of Barium Titanate (BaTiO3) and Poly (methyl methacrylate) prepared by solution casting technique. Different weight percentage composition of BaTiO3 has been selected to find out the best optimization condition for further investigation and correlate the results. The structural properties have been carried out at room temperature using XRD. Efforts have been made to correlate the results with investigated XRD results of pure BaTiO3 and its composites as observed by other workers at room temperature. The flow of experimental work and microscopic images are explained.

The effect of Pd-TiO2 nanoparticle doping on structural, optical and thermal properties of the PVA polymer has been investigated using FTIR, UV-Visible, TGA and FESEM analysis. nanosized Pd-TiO2 particles were synthesized using standard method. Pure and Pd-TiO2/PVA nanocomposite films were prepared using solution casting technique. The FTIR study confirmed that the Pd-TiO2 nanoparticles interacts with the OH group of PVA polymer and forms the complex. The presence of these complexes affects the optical and thermal properties the composite. The change in the optical properties was studied using UV-Vis absorption method. The effect of doping on the thermal properties was studied using TGA method and the modified surface morphology using FESEM.

In an effort to improve the electrical properties of the electroactive Poly(vinylidene fluoride-hexafluoropropylene) (PVdF-HFP), we introduced a novel and simple approach to synthesize PVDF-HFP composite films by incorporating ultrahigh dilutions of two homeopathic medicines Ferrum metallicum (FM) and Zincum oxidatum (ZO) in different potencies. The homeo-PVDF-composite films (HPCF) were synthesized by simple solution casting technique. XRD, FESEM, FTIR studies were performed to check the presence of nanoparticles in the film. The electrical properties of the HPCF samples get enhanced significantly due to the incorporation of the medicines and the effect increases with the increase in potency of the medicines.

Relatively new Sago/PVA blended membranes were prepared by solution casting technique. Homogenous sago/PVA membranes were prepared with different ratio of sago content in the membrane. The blended membranes were characterized using Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR), contact angle measurements, and degree of swelling (DS). The blended membranes were tested for pervaporation of ethyl acetate-water mixture at a range of 1-4wt% of water in the solution. The effects of feed temperature and concentration were investigated. The permeation flux increased around 30% with sago content in the blend membranes from 3wt% to 7wt% at 60oC. However, the separation factor decreased from 433 to 387 for same membrane.

This paper focuses on the dielectric constant (ε′), dielectric loss factor (ε″) and frequency dependent conductivity (σac) properties of newly prepared poly(vinylalcohol) (PVA) chitosan (CS) composite films incorporated with different concentrations of LiClO 4. The composite films were prepared using solution casting technique. The complexation between salt and polymer host is confirmed by FT Raman and UV-Vis studies. The sample containing 20 wt.% LiClO 4 exhibits a highest ionic conductivity of 3 × 10-6 S/cm at room temperature. The dielectric properties of the composites follow non-Debye behavior.

When the pH or the temperature of a simulated body fluid is raised, fine particles of calcium phosphate are precipitated, which are named apatite nuclei (AN). In this study, we aimed to impart bioactivity to polycaprolactone by incorporating AN. AN-PCL composite films having different weight percentages of AN in PCL were fabricated by solution casting technique, using doctor blade method. Results showed that more than 20 wt.% AN-PCL films were fully covered with hydroxyapatite layer in three days soaking period in SBF.

In this research, solid biopolymer electrolytes (SBEs) based on carboxy methylcellulose (CMC) has been prepared by doping different concentration of salicylic acid (SA) via solution casting technique. Fourier Transform Infrared spectroscopy was used to study the interaction between the host and ionic dopant. New peaks were observed at 1700, 2890, 2920 cm-1.The highest ionic conductivity achieved at room temperature is 9.50 × 108 S cm1 for CMC incorporated with 7 wt. % SA. In addition, the temperature dependence of the SBEs exhibit Arrhenius behavior.

Cellulose nanocrystal (CNC)-reinforced bio-composite films containing glycerol were produced using the solution casting technique. The influences of the addition of CNC (2, 4, and 8 wt%) and glycerol (10, 20, and 30 wt%) on the properties of the bio-composite films were studied in the present work. The resulting films were characterized by X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, and thermogravimetry analysis (TGA), and according to their tensile, water absorption, and light transmission behavior. The introduction of 4 wt% CNC into the chitosan film did not affect the thermal stability, but the presence of 20 wt% glycerol reduced the thermal stability. The addition of 4 wt% CNC to the chitosan film increased its tensile strength, tensile modulus, and elongation at break by 206%, 138%, and 277%, respectively. However, adding more than 8 wt% CNC resulted in a drastic reduction in the strength and ductility of the chitosan film. The highest strength and stiffness of the chitosan bio-composite film were attained with 4 wt% CNC and 20 wt% glycerol. The water absorption and light transmission of the chitosan film were reduced dramatically by the presence of both CNC and glycerol.
