Three-phase Fe3O4/MWNT/PVDF nanocomposites with high dielectric constant for embedded capacitor

To get the dielectric material with a high dielectric constant and low dielectric loss, the modified multiwalled carbon nanotube (MWNT-S) and ferroferric oxide (Fe3O4) particles were embedded into polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) to fabricate the Fe3O4/MWNT-S/PVDF ternary composites. The maximum dielectric constant of these composites can be up to 3490 at a very low filler fraction, and dielectric loss can be suppressed below 0.5. The small amount of the second filler (Fe3O4) can accelerate the formation of a percolation conductive network and improve the interfacial polarization. Therefore, the excellent dielectric properties can be achieved at low loading of fillers.
