Title

Synthesis And Conductometric Property Of Sol-Gel-Derived Zno/Pvp Nano Hybrid Films

Keywords

Abstract

ZnO nanoparticles immobilized in polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) were prepared using sol-gel dip-coating technique with varying Zn2+/PVP ratios. The films were characterized using atomic force microscopy, x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy, and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy for chemical analysis. The size and concentration of ZnO particles decreased as the Zn/PVP ratio decreased. Under low Zn2+/PVP molar ratios, ZnO particles were clearly well separated and capped in the PVP polymer matrix. Electrical resistivity of 108 Ω cm was achieved under these deposition conditions. © 2012 ASM International.
