Abstract :
Laminar (2-2) composite is treated as a model system to better understand interfacial interactions between an oxide and a polymer in more complex particulate polymer composites. Performed impedance spectroscopy measurements implied the modification of the polymer in contact with the oxide. Thermally stimulated depolarization current measurements have shown that deeper energy states can be engineered at the oxide and polymer interface by incorporating interfacial polar charge withdrawing functional group.
