摘要: Herein we report the successful fabrication of highly flexible, reversibly stretchable, transparent, and conductive poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) nanocomposite (NC) films with a hydrophobic surface by reinforcing varying amounts, viz., 0, 0.5, 1, 2, 4 wt %, calcium zincate (Ca0.2Zn0.8O) nanofillers. The developed show appreciable UVA screening efficacies as established novel (UV-transillumination studies) method. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) studies reveal positive interaction between PVA matrix incorporated nanofiller, while scanning electron microscopic (SEM) support uniform filler dispersions. electronic spectral substantiate changes in band structure composite leading to optoelectronic properties. fluorescent emission dopant-dependent photonic emissions, dielectric properties, such constant (e′) loss (e″), increase an ...
