ABSTRACTBased on the investigation of mechanism for large dielectric losses in relaxor fluorinated polymers, polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) derivatives, a new nanostructure-controlled PVDF based polymer films with low dielectric loss, tanδ < 1% (0.6%), and high dielectric constant, εr = 13 at frequency of 1 kHz, was proposed for electrical energy storage applications. The high dielectric loss was mainly due to the electric-field induced α-β phase transition, and one dimensional extension of P(VDF-TrFE)-g-PEMA films was found to reduce the α phase component resulting in reduction of the dielectric loss while keeping the high dielectric constant. In-situ FTIR measurements suggested a possibility of further reducing the dielectric-loss.

Rising worldwide demands for energy encourages development of high-efficiency energy storage and capacitor components. Main requirements for dielectric materials employed in fabrication of high energy density capacitors include high dielectric constant, high dielectric breakdown strength, and low dielectric loss. Owing to its high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss [1], barium titanate is among common capacitor materials. Tailoring of dielectric properties of barium titanate can be achieved through controlled chemical composition, microstructure, and crystal structure. Synthesis and processing techniques, as well as doping of barium titanate, can be key factors to control the composition and structure, which consequently contribute to enhancement of dielectric constant in the material.

In recent years, there has been an increasing interest on high dielectric constant that have significant applications in electronic devices. Dielectric materials have many technological applications such as capacitors, resonators and filters. High dielectric ceramic capacitors based perovskite oxides are necessary for modern electronic devices and are found to be suitable for a wide range of applications. Subramanian et al. discovered the high dielectric constant of CaCu3Ti4O12 (CCTO) ~ 10,000 at room temperature. CCTO has the cubic perovskite crystal structure and high dielectric constant of ~ 104 up to 105 at radio frequency and good temperature stability over a wide temperature range [1,2]. These properties were desired for various microelectronic applications. With the high dielectric constant, the material can store more charge and the values make CCTO an attractive material for ultra-high energy density capacitors. However, this properties can be accomplished if single phase of CCTO is formed. Many research have been done recently on the synthesis of the cubic perovskite CCTO and many techniques are working such as sol-gel route [3], combustion techniques [4], molten salt process [5] and etc., but this technique is difficult and complex process during sample preparation.

The development of high-energy-density electrostatic capacitors is critical to addressing the growing electricity need. Currently, the widely studied dielectric materials are polymer nanocomposites incorporated with high-dielectric-constant nanoparticles. However, the introduction of high-dielectric-constant nanoparticles can cause local electric field distortion and high leakage current, which limits the improvement in energy density. In this work, on the basis of conventional polymer nanocomposites containing high-dielectric-constant nanoparticles, oriented boron nitride nanosheets (BNNSs) are introduced as an extra filler phase. By changing the volume ratios of barium titanate (BT) and BNNSs, the dielectric property of polymer nanocomposites is adjusted, and thus the capacitive energy storage performance is optimized. Experimental results prove that the oriented BNNSs can suppress the propagation of charge carriers and decrease the conduction loss. Using poly(vinylidene fluoride-co-hexafluoropropylene) (P(VDF-HFP)) as the polymer matrix, the P(VDF-HFP)/BNNS/BT nanocomposite has a higher discharged energy density compared with the conventional nanocomposite with the freely dispersed BT nanoparticles.

In order to develop infinite capacitive materials with high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss, influences of Y/Mn co-doping and ZrO2 coating on the dielectric properties of barium strontium tinanate/polyvinylidene fluoride (BST/PVDF) composite films were systematically investigated with fixing Y concentration as 0.3 at.% and varying Mn concentration from 1 at.% to 4 at.%. The experimental results show that the dielectric constant of BST@ZrO2/PVDF composite increases by 50% relative to BST/PVDF and the dielectric loss is evidently depressed. In comparison with BST@ZrO2/PVDF sample, furthermore, the dielectric constant of Y/Mn co-doped BST@ZrO2/PVDF samples increases by about 60% and the dielectric loss further reduces at 1 kHz. The promoted dielectric performances of composite originate from the space charge separation formed by Y/Mn co-doping and the limitation of electronic mobility by coated ZrO2. Y/Mn co-doped BST@ZrO2/PVDF composite film with 3% Mn has a dielectric constant of 37.9, a dielectric loss of 0.0117, superior dielectric temperature stability (3.1% from -5[Formula: see text]C to 45[Formula: see text]C at 1 kHz), and a discharged energy density of 5.67 J/cm3 at 600 kV/cm. The simultaneous optimization of dielectric constant and dielectric loss of BST/PVDF composite is realized in this experiment. The superior dielectric temperature stability suggests the application potential of Y/Mn co-doped BST@ZrO2/PVDF as wearable capacitors.
