Abstract :
This work focused on the interaction of polar ceramic particles with the hosting polymers to improve the distribution of particles and the dielectric properties of polymer composites. Polymers incorporating polar ceramic particles were shown to exhibit improved dielectric properties. Both computation and experimental observation were conducted to enhance the understanding of composite dielectric engineering. The electric field was found to be localized at the particle¿ polymer interface, likely contributing to the polarization of polar particles.
