This article reports on the Dielectric Relaxation Studies of two Liquid Crystalline compounds - 7O.4 and 7O.6 - doped with dodecanethiol capped Silver Nanoparticles. The liquid crystal molecules are aligned homeotropically using CTAB. The low frequency relaxation process occurring above 1 MHz is fitted to Cole-Cole formula using the software Dielectric Spectra fit. The effect of the Silver Nanoparticles on the molecular dipole dynamics are discussed in terms of the fitted relaxation times, Cole-Cole distribution parameter and activation energy. The study indicate a local molecular rearrangement of the liquid crystal molecules without affecting the order of the bulk liquid crystal molecules but these local molecules surrounding the Silver Nanoparticles do not contribute to the relaxation process in the studied frequency range. The observed effect on activation energy suggests a change in interaction between the nanoparticles/liquid crystal molecules.

Properties Of Composites

In this work, new films containing composite materials based on blends of thermoplastic polymers of the polyurethane (TPU) and polyolefin (TPO) type, in the absence and presence of BaTiO3 nanoparticles (NPs) with the size smaller 100 nm, were prepared. The vibrational properties of the free films depending on the weight ratio of the two thermoplastic polymers were studied. Our results demonstrate that these films are optically active, with strong, broad, and adjustable photoluminescence by varying the amount of TPU. The crystalline structure of BaTiO3 and the influence of thermoplastic polymers on the crystallization process of these inorganic NPs were determined by X-ray diffraction (XRD) studies. The vibrational changes induced in the thermoplastic polymer’s matrix of the BaTiO3 NPs were showcased by Raman scattering and FTIR spectroscopy. The incorporation of BaTiO3 NPs in the matrix of thermoplastic elastomers revealed the shift dependence of the photoluminescence (PL) band depending on the BaTiO3 NP concentration, which was capable of covering a wide visible spectral range. The dependencies of the dielectric relaxation phenomena with the weight of BaTiO3 NPs in thermoplastic polymers blends were also demonstrated.
