Effects of filler composition, loading, and geometry on the dielectric loss, partial discharge, and dielectric strength of liquid metal polymer composites

Nanobrick Wall Multilayer Thin Films with High Dielectric Breakdown Strength

“…It is important to note that the terms loss %, dielectric loss, loss tangent, and tanδ are interchangeable with one another. − When analyzing dielectric loss in the frequency regime of 100 Hz to 1 MHz, the PEI/PAA system demonstrates extraordinarily high losses compared to the other systems. These high losses and high dielectric constant (particularly in the realm of 100–1000 Hz) are to be expected of a polyelectrolyte multilayer system and can be attributed to ionic polarization as well as ion transport due to residual amounts of small ions in the film .…”

Homogeneity of liquid metal polymer composites: impact on mechanical, electrical, and sensing behavior

“…This observation is consistent with previous work by Calabrese et al , who also saw that increasing galinstan concentration has little effect on the loss value of the composites. 46…”

Recent progress of Ga-based liquid metals in catalysis

“…As a liquid phase metal, Ga functions as a metal solvent, and the proportions of different metals associated with Ga metal can be adjusted to create alloys with varying melting points. Gallium–Indium alloys (EGaIn) and Gallium–Indium–Tin alloys (Galinstan) are two commonly used liquid metals based on Ga. 3–5 The melting points of these two alloys (≈11 °C, ≈−19 °C) are even lower than pure Ga (29.78 °C). 4 A bimetallic or even polymetallic catalyst has greater catalytic activity than its monometallic counterpart due to the synergistic effect.…”
