Investigating the impact of nano Zn0.9Mg0.05X0.05O doping on the optical and dielectric features of PMMA/PEO/TPAI-blended polymer
Poly-methylmethacrylate (PMMA)–polyethylene oxide (PEO)–tetrapropylammonium iodide (TPAI)-blended polymers loaded with nano Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O or Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]X[Formula: see text]O (where X represents Mn, Ni, Cu) have been formed for optical and energy storage uses. The impact of Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O or Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]X[Formula: see text]O (X [Formula: see text] Mn, Ni, Cu) loading on the structure and morphology of the host PMMA/PEO/TPAI-blended polymer was studied. The absorbance of the PMMA/PEO/TPAI-blended polymer rose based on the sort of filler used. The justification for the enhancement was that the filled samples would successfully obstruct UVA, UVB, and UVC radiation. The sample containing Ni exhibited the lowest [Formula: see text] values. In the visible spectrum, samples containing Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O or Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]Ni[Formula: see text]O displayed the greatest n values, contingent upon the wavelength range. In the visible spectrum, the sample containing Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O had the utmost optical dielectric constant values, but the sample containing Ni demonstrated the greatest values in the UV range. When comparing the sample filled with either Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O or Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]M[Formula: see text]O to the pure blend, it was found that the values of the nonlinear optical parameters were raised, as the blended polymer filled with either Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O or Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]Ni[Formula: see text]O relied on the wavelength range. The host composite polymer can be infused with Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O to achieve the highest energy density values. The loaded PMMA/PEO polymer containing either Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]O or Zn[Formula: see text]Mg[Formula: see text]X[Formula: see text]O showed enhanced capacitance. The sample containing Ni exhibited the maximum conductivity.
