Poly (vinylidene fluoride)/graphite nanoplatelets (PVDF/GNP) and PVDF/clay nanocomposites were prepared by means of solution mixing and compression molding processes. The effects of graphite and clay nanoplatelet additions on dielectric behavior of PVDF were studied. The results showed that both clay and GNP additions were beneficial in enhancing permittivity of PVDF. However, conducting graphite platelets were more effective than nonconducting clay sheets in this aspect. This was due to the formation of mini-capacitors in the matrix of PVDF/GNP nanocomposites.

Cellulose nanocrystals (CNCs) were incorporated into poly (vinylidene fluoride) (PVDF) to tailor the mechanical and dielectric properties of this electroactive polymer. PVDF/CNC nanocomposites with concentrations up to 15 wt.% were prepared by solvent-casting followed by quick vacuum drying in order to ensure the formation of the electroactive γ-phase. The changes induced by the presence of CNCs on the morphology of PVDF and its crystalline structure, thermal properties, mechanical performance and dielectric behavior are explored. The results suggest a relevant role of the CNC surface −OH groups, which interact with PVDF fluorine atoms. The real dielectric constant ε’ of nanocomposites at 200 Hz was found to increase by 3.6 times up to 47 for the 15 wt.% CNC nanocomposite due to an enhanced ionic conductivity provided by CNCs. The approach reported here in order to boost the formation of the γ-phase of PVDF upon the incorporation of CNCs serves to further develop cellulose-based multifunctional materials.

Binary poly(vinylidene fluoride)/silicon carbide (PVDF/SiC) composites and its graphite nanosheets (GN) doped ternary hybrids were fabricated using simple solution mixing and hot compression molding process. The dielectric behavior of such hybrids was studied over a wide frequency range. Additions of graphite nanosheets with their concentrations close to the percolation threshold were found to be very effective to enhance the dielectric permittivity of PVDF/SiC system. The dielectric constant for PVDF/SiC/GN 80/20/2 system was ~ 200, being twenty times higher than that of neat PVDF. Furthermore, the dielectric behavior of such hybrid displayed strong frequency dependence.

Crosslinking poly(VDF-co-VA) copolymers leads to a change from ferroelectric to double hysteresis loop behavior when the crosslinking density is increased.
