Synthesis and characterization of polybenzoxazine graphene metal oxide nanocomposites

Abstract

Recent improvements in technological development of modern society has led to problems such as over energy consumption depletion of fossil fuels and environmental problems including global warming all of which tend to create demand for renewable energy production and environmental friendly sustainable energy storage materials Among the energy storage materials graphene based nanocomposites have invited great deal of attention because of their many advantages such as high thermal stability high energy density high power density good cycling stability and environmental benignity Polymers used for electrical and electronic applications should have good mechanical and dielectric properties Reinforcing fillers such as carbon black are widely used in polymer composites But there are efforts to replace carbon black with other fillers such as carbon nanotubes graphite functionalized graphene and metal oxides However their reinforcing properties are lower than that of carbon black The aim of this research work is to investigate the dielectric properties of fillers such as reduced grapheme functionalized graphene nickel oxide nickel ferrite and their polybenzoxazine based nanocomposites newline
