Zinc sulfide ZnS have been synthesized in reserves cores micelles in PS synthesized by emulsion polymerization. The size and morphology of ZnS/PS particles have been characterized via XRD, TEM, IR, SEM and AFM measurement. The dielectric proprieties of ZnS/PS are synthesized membrane, obtaining a water-swelling percentage around 20% and filled with ZnS nanoparticules were studied as a function of particle coating. The complex permittivity was measured with a 7600 Meter dielectric spectroscopy analyzer at applied voltage of 1 V with frequency varying between 10Hz and up to 1 KHz at different temperatures measurements are performed in dry conditions.
Polymer nanocomposites of polystyrene matrix containing 5 wt % of organoswy were prepared using the solution method with sonication 23 hours. CPBr is used to modify the SWY clay after suturing with surface with Na+. Polystyrene was synthesized through solution polymerization in the presence of potassium persulfate (KPS) as an initiator. The synthesized PS/oswy were characterized by XRD, FTIR, SEM methods. Frequency dependent complex dielectric function, loss tangent spectra of PS and PS/swy nanocomposites up to 5 wt %.The nanocomposite materials with low dielectric constant and loss tang compared to the pure polystyrene were obtained. The dielectric constant increase with the increase of temperatures.
