Abstract

Graphene oxide-based materials are well known for their electrical properties. Novel ternary composite films (PVDF-GO-FK-31) were prepared by introducing a metal complex, for the first time, in a graphene oxide-PVDF polymer matrix (where PVDF = polyvinylidene fluoride; GO = graphene oxide; FK-31 = [Ni(PPh3)2(SCOf)2] (SCOf = furan-2-thiocarboxylate). In these composites, the graphene oxides show strong interfacial bonding with the PVDF matrix due to the incorporation of the FK-31 molecules. The experimental results showed that the incorporation of FK-31 into the PVDF-GO matrix greatly improved the dielectric constant and suppressed dielectric loss values. The composites thus may be used as dielectric materials for electronic capacitors.

Graphical Abstract

For the first time, a ternary composite was prepared by incorporating a newly synthesized square planar nickel(II) complex in a graphene oxide-PVDF polymer matrix and its dielectric and electric properties were studied. With increasing concentration of the complex in the ternary composite its dielectric constant and electrical conductivity increases while the dielectric loss decreases.
