Dielectric percolative composites with high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss based on sulfonated poly(aryl ether ketone) and a-MWCNTs coated with polyaniline

摘要

Acidified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (a-MWCNTs) coated with polyaniline (PANI) (a-MWCNTs @ PAN I) nanofiller were prepared by in situ polymerization. Novel dielectric percolative composites, sulfonated poiy(aryl ether ketone) (SPAEK)/a-MWCNTs@PANf, with high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss were fabricated using simple solution blending technique. A SPAEK/a-MWCNTs@PANI composite prepared in this fashion exhibited a high dielectric constant above 800, a dielectric loss tangent less than 1.1 at 10 kHz and room temperature. The morphological study of composites by SEM suggested that the in situ polymerization method of preparing a-MWCNTs@PANI nanofillers was useful to achieve good dispersion of fillers in SPAEK matrix.
