Abstract:Hybrid polymer films of polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP)/ polyvinyl alcohol (PVA) embedded with gradient levels of Bi-powder were prepared using a conventional solution casting process. X-ray diffraction (XRD), Fourier transform infrared spectroscopic (FT-IR), and Scanning electron microscope (SEM) techniques have been used to examine the micro/molecular structural and morphological of the synthesized flexible films. The XRD peak intensity and FTIR spectra of the PVA gradually decline as Bi-metal is introduced. In … Show more
