Polyvinyl chloride (PVC) is usually used as insulation in electrical engineering, mainly as cable insulation sheaths. A method for improving PVC’s dielectric properties, reducing the effects of UV aging, is the use of PVC films doped in alumina and titanium dioxide. This research investigated the influence of alumina and titanium dioxide (Al2O3/TiO2) on the dielectric properties of PVC. Four PVC samples were examined using an RLC impedance analyzer. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy was utilized on the sample’s surfaces, exploring the chemical stability of the tested materials. In addition, the volume resistivity and average breakdown voltage of each sample were examined. Doping Al2O3/TiO2 into PVC improved its dielectric properties and volume resistivity while adding more ceramic decreased volume resistivity. Furthermore, the addition of Al2O3/TiO2 caused a significant enhancement in voltage breakdown strength.

The reported enhancement in dielectric properties obtained for polymer nano-composite seemed to be very encouraging. To further understand the dielectric behavior of epoxy nano-composite, aluminum oxide (Al2O3) nano-particles were incorporated into bisphenol A epoxy resin, and the dependence of nano-particle content and the dielectric properties was investigated in this study. Results showed that, when nano-particle contents was no more than 10phr, relative permittivity (εr) decreased to be lower than that of monolithic epoxy, and the minimum value appeared in 4phr nano-particle filled composite. The minimum value of tan delta (tanδ) appeared in 6phr nano-particle filled composite. DC volume resistivity (ρv) increased due to the introduction of nano-particles when the filler content is very small (about 2phr).

Rapid growth of electronic industry requires development of new materials that combine the high dielectric constant intrinsic to ferroelectric ceramic materials with easy processing characteristics of polymers. Ceramic-polymeric composites possess interesting properties for a variety of electronic applications including passive electronic devices. In fact, polymer-ceramic materials have drawn lot attention for use in microelectronic packaging, because they can give higher performance with lower cost, size and weight. In this work, attempts are made to prepare ceramic polymer composites followed by characterization of dielectric properties. The Barium Titanate ceramic powders are synthesized using the hydrothermal process. Crystal structure and crystallite size of particles are determined using X-ray diffraction. Silane treatment is carried out on Barium Titanate powder to increase its compatibility with polymer, followed with preparation of ceramic polymer composites. Epoxy and polyvinyledene fluoride (PVDF) polymers are used as matrices for preparation of the composites. The proportion of nanopowder is varied from 60 to 90 wt%. Dielectric properties such as volume resistivity, dielectric constant, dissipation factor are evaluated. Results indicate that the dielectric constant and dissipation factor vary between 18 -140 and 0.01 to 0.09, respectively as the relative ratio of polymer and silane modified Barium Titanate is varied. Specifically, at 90 wt% of 0.1 wt% silane modified Barium Titanate, the highest dielectric constant of 140 along with dissipation factor of 0.07 is obtained in the epoxy based system.

A wet solid-state method was used in this work to produce [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] materials. By using core-shell structure nanocubic [Formula: see text] (BMST) decorated [Formula: see text] (BBT) assemblies, a composite capacitor with improved dielectric constant and enhanced breakdown strength was successfully fabricated in contrast with the composite ferroelectric [Formula: see text]–[Formula: see text] (BBT–BST) ceramic. With increasing Mg content, the ceramic capacitors display a stronger performance in its dielectric behavior. The best dielectric properties were obtained in the composition [Formula: see text] = 0.007 with the dielectric constant above 65,000. The dielectric strength of the ceramics was measured by a withstanding voltage tester. The best dielectric strength was achieved in the composition [Formula: see text] = 0.007 with [Formula: see text] = 5.455 kV/mm.

Epoxy composites incorporated with three kinds of hybrid aluminum (Al) particles with binary size distribution, that is, [1 μm/45 μm], [1 μm/18 μm], and [18 μm/45 μm], respectively, were prepared, and the mechanical and dielectric properties of the hybrid Al/epoxy composites were investigated as a function of relative weight fraction of smaller-size Al ( Ws) of hybrid Al particles at a total filler content of 50 wt%. The mechanical and electrical properties of the hybrid Al/epoxy composites are found to mainly depend on the type of hybrid filler and the Ws and can be tuned by changing the Ws. The maximum tensile strength and elongation at break of the composites appear at an optimal Ws. Furthermore, the dielectric permittivity, dielectric breakdown strength, and volume resistivity of the hybrid Al/epoxy composites also exhibit the similar variations as the mechanical properties with the Ws. The obvious enhancements in the physical properties can be ascribed to the synergistic effect of hybrid particles in the matrix at the optimal Ws, which endows the composites with better mechanical and dielectric properties. So, the results give a facile strategy to enhance the dielectric and mechanical properties of the composites by choosing a proper Ws at a fixed total filler loading.

The dielectric behavior and properties of three types of Sarawak woods, under various conditions (untreated, alkaline treated, potassium carbonate treated, and heat treated), were investigated and discussed. The dielectric constant, loss, and dissipation factor tests were conducted via a dielectric impedance analyzer. The results revealed that the dielectric properties decreased in relation to an increase in frequency. With considerations to the treatment method, the highest dielectric constant values for the untreated samples were found in Kumpang wood, the highest dielectric constant values for the heat-treated samples and potassium carbonate treated samples were found in Keranji wood, and the highest dielectric constant values for sodium hydroxide treated samples were found in Kayu Malam wood. Therefore, it was evident that the physical properties, e.g., internal structure, density, moisture, temperature, etc., could affect the dielectric behavior and properties of the wood materials.

High density BaTiO3ceramics have been prepared by the addition of CuO-Bi2O3-B2O3mixed oxide. The results indicate that the sintering temperature of BaTiO3bulk can be decreased by about 300°C and high dielectric behavior can be remained. The CuO-Bi2O3-B2O3additives can increase the breakdown strength, and leads to an obvious enhancement of the energy density, which is nearly 2 times of pure BaTiO3.

BaxSr1-xTiO3 (0.2≤x≤0.5) ceramics with 10 vol% BaO-SiO2-B2O3 glass addition were prepared. The microstructure and dielectric properties were investigated by XRD, SEM, ferroelectric tester and impedance analyzer. The results show that with the decrease of x, the pulse breakdown strength of the samples is increased, and the dielectric constant and dielectric loss is decreased gradually. In the frequency from 10 kHz to 20 MHz, the dielectric constant of all the samples show good frequency stability. For x=0.2, the samples exhibit high breakdown strength of 37.7 kV/mm, moderate dielectric constant of 311 and low dielectric loss of 5×10-4,which is a promising dielectric for pulsed power applications.

Influence of Ca substitution on structural, magnetic and dielectric properties of Ba3Co2-xCaxFe24O41(where x = 0.0, 0.2, 0.4, 0.6, 0.8 and 1.0), prepared by Sol-Gel auto-combustion method, has been investigated in present studies. The obtained powder was sintered at 950 oC for 4 hrs. in the static air atmosphere. Structural analysis of Ca-doped Ba3Co2-xCaxFe24O41powders revealed pure Z-type hexaferrite phase at low temperature. The frequency dependent dielectric constant (Єʹ) and magnetic properties such as remanent magnetization (Mr), saturation magnetization (Ms) and coercivity (Hc) were studied. It is observed that coercivity increased gradually with increase in calcium content. The real dielectric constant (Єʹ) and dielectric loss tangent (tan δ) were studied in the frequency range of 20Hz to 2MHz. The dielectric parameters for all samples show normal dielectric behavior as observed in hexaferrites. Contents of Paper

The effect of plasticizer on dielectric properties of poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA)/titanium dioxide (TiO2) composites was investigated. Propylene carbonate (PC) was used as plasticizer in the samples which were prepared with the conventional solvent casting technique. Scanning Electron Microscopy with Energy Dispersive X-Ray Analysis (SEM-EDX) and Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) analyses and LCR Meter measurements (performed between 300 K and 400 K), were conducted to examine the properties of the composites. With the addition of plasticizer, the thermal properties have changed and the dielectric constant of the composite has increased significantly. The glass transition temperature of pure PMMA measured 121.7°C and this value did not change significantly with the addition of TiO2, however, 112°C was measured in the sample with the addition 4 ml of PC. While the dielectric constant of pure PMMA was 3.64, the ε′ value increased to 5.66 with the addition of TiO2 and reached 12.6 with the addition of 4 ml PC. These changes have been attributed to increase in amorphous ratio that facilitates polymer dipolar and segmental mobility.
