Abstract
Engineered nanocomposites with tailored dielectric and hydrophobic characteristics are highly desirable for miniaturized electronics. In this context, we have fabricated acrylonitrile butadiene styrene (ABS)/NiFe2O4 nanocomposites by facile solvent casted and low-volume high-pressure air-atomized (LVHPAA) techniques. The developed nanocomposites consisted of phases such as amorphous ABS, and crystalline nickel–ferrite phases were examined via x-ray diffraction technique. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic measuration was used to describe ABS polymers, nickel–ferrite oxide constituents, and their interactions. The effect of the space-charge polarization mechanism between particulates and the polymer (101–102 Hz and 10–40 wt.%) was analyzed via impedance spectroscopy, which is further augmented by the Maxwell–Wagner Sillars polarization hypothesis. Also, the subsequent oriental relaxation phenomenon (103–107 Hz) was analyzed. Moreover, at ∼ 107 Hz for all wt.% (10–40 wt.%), the incremental permittivity attributed oriental resonance phenomena was examined. In addition, the developed nanocomposites DC-conductivity attributed micro/nano-capacitors mechanism, and the AC-conductivity realized reorientational hoping mechanisms were scrutinized. The cole–cole representation of a nanocomposite that explained relaxation oriented insulating characteristics was also elucidated. The hydrophobicity of developed composites was characterized via atomic force microscopy (AFM) and contact angle goniometry. The AFM analysis showed a uniform textured surface morphology with the LVHPAA technique, which renders superior hydrophobic characteristics due to the process induced nano-needle generated roughness factor. The investigation results explain the improvement in the dielectric and hydrophobic characteristics of nanocomposites obtained by the LVHPAA technique. Therefore, these ABS/NiFe2O4 nanocomposites could be a possible functional material for miniaturized electronic applications.
