Effect of Film Formation in Polypropylene Graphene Metacomposite

In this research the effect of incorporation of graphene to polypropylene and the application of heat and pressure to the nanocomposite is studied using dielectric spectroscopy technique and small angle neutron scattering (SANS). Both pellets and films of the polypropylene graphene nanocomposites were made. Graphene was used as it has high electrical conductivity. It is observed that the dielectric constant, dielectric loss, and conductivity are different for the pellets and the films. Negative dielectric constant behavior is observed for both films and pellets. Fractals are observed in both the pellets and films. This research could benefit battery technology and microelectronics.
