ABSTRACT
Flexible high dielectric materials are of prime importance for advanced portable, foldable and wearable devices. A series of flexible high dielectric thin films based on cellulose nanofibrils (CNF) and acid oxidized multi-walled carbon nanotubes (o-MWCNT) was prepared in aqueous solution. Though no organic solvent was involved during the preparation, the SEM images showed that o-MWCNTs have good distribution within the CNF matrix. The dielectric constant of CNF/o-MWCNT (6.2 wt%) composite films was greatly increased from 25.24 for pure CNF to 73.88, while the loss tangent slightly decreased from 0.70 to 0.68, and the AC conductivity decreased from 3.15 × 10-7 S cm-1 for CNF to 1.77 × 10-7 S cm-1 (at 1 kHz). The abnormal decrease of loss tangent and AC conductivity were attributed to the introduction of oxide-containing groups on the surface of MWCNTs. The nanocomposite films showed excellent flexibility such that they could be bent a thousand times without visible damage. The presence of MWCNTs also helped to improve the thermal stability of the composite films. The excellent dielectric and mechanical properties of the CNF/o-MWCNT composite film demonstrate its great potential to be utilized in the field of energy storage.
