ABSTRACT

 

Microwave dielectric double perovskite /polymer composites are materials that combine the flexibility of polymer matrices like epoxy, polyurethane, or silicone rubber with unique properties of double perovskite ceramics, such as Ba2ZnWO6, Ba2MgWO6, and Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6. These complex oxide ceramics are synthesized using the solid-state reaction technique. The X-ray diffraction analysis (XRD) confirmed the formation of the double perovskite phase with well-defined crystal structures. Utilizing transmission/reflection measurements by a vector network analyzer (VNA) and double perovskite ceramics as filler materials in the polymer matrix, the impact of the complex oxide fillers on the composites’ overall dielectric properties was fully measured. In particular, the dielectric properties of the resulting composites, specifically their dielectric loss and dielectric constant, were investigated within the wide frequency range of 4-8 GHz. Better dielectric characteristics, such as a high dielectric constant and a low loss factor, were demonstrated by Ba2ZnWO6, which made it a viable option for use in high-frequency circuits, microwave devices, energy storage components and communication technology. Furthermore, Competitive dielectric qualities were demonstrated by Ba2MgWO6 and Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6. In addition, the results indicated improved dielectric characteristics, including dielectric constant and loss factor. The resulting composites not only have a lower cost and light weight than ceramics, but they also have a lot of potential uses in the microwave dielectric range. Furthermore, when compared to the other measured composites the Ba2ZnWO6/polymer composites demonstrated superior properties.

INTRODUCTION

Over the past decade, the landscape of wireless communication has undergone a significant transformation, shifting from a predominantly military-driven domain to a commercially viable market with a focus on consumers. This evolution has prompted electronic industries to concentrate on achieving cost-effective product miniaturization, introducing new challenges and requirements.(1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8) Amidst this backdrop, the expansion of telecommunication systems and high-speed digital devices has spurred scientific exploration into novel materials capable of delivering enhanced performance.

Despite the commendable thermal and dielectric properties found in many ceramic materials, their inherent brittleness constrains the range of applications they can serve. Conversely, certain polymers, crafted at low temperatures, exhibit remarkable mechanical properties, suggesting their potential as microwave substrates. Nevertheless, their utility is hampered by low thermal conductivity, low relative permittivity, and significant thermal expansion.(1,2,3)

Addressing these challenges, the concept of composite materials involves merging the distinctive properties of ceramics with polymers to create ceramic-polymer composites tailored for electrical applications. Notably, combining polymer matrices with double perovskite ceramics provides an avenue to fine-tune the dielectric properties, catering to specific application requirements. Through careful selection of filler material and volume percentage, control over the dielectric constant and loss factor is achieved, optimizing efficiency in high-frequency applications. These composites exhibit versatility across various polymer matrices, including silicone rubber, epoxy, and polyurethane, owing to their exceptional dielectric characteristics.

Moreover, the literature review on perovskites underscores a significant disparity in reported dielectric parameter values for this ceramic material. Double perovskites Ba2MeWO6 (Me=Mg, Ni, Zn) were synthesized through conventional solid-state reaction over a broad temperature range. Single-phase ceramics were achieved at lower temperatures, around 1200°C, while higher temperatures resulted in the presence of minor second phases. Dielectric measurements revealed a positive temperature coefficient of permittivity for Ba2ZnWO6 and Ba2MgWO6, suggesting the impact of second polar modes involving B-site ion vibrations on their low-frequency dielectric properties.(9) Double perovskite compounds (DPCs) have garnered attention for their versatility in electronics and spintronic. Employing density functional theory (DFT), we explored the electronic, magnetic, and optical properties of DPC La2BB’O6, where B = Cr, Sc, and V, and B’ = Co, Ni. Electronic band gaps suggest these compounds exhibit half-metallic (HF) semiconducting behavior in the spin-up channel and metallic behavior in the spin-down channel. Magnetic properties indicate they are ferromagnetic, classifying all DPCs as half-metallic ferromagnetic (HM-FM). Notably, La2CrCoO6 displays exceptional electronic and optical properties, making it suitable for optoelectronic/spintronic devices.(10) 2 BWO6 (A= Sr, Ba; B= Co, Ni, Zn) microwave dielectric ceramics were synthesized through conventional solid-state ceramic methods. X-ray diffraction (XRD) analysis confirmed a cubic perovskite structure for all compounds. Dielectric properties were measured in the 6,5 to 8,5 GHz frequency range using resonance methods, revealing dielectric constants within 18 to 30, high-quality factor (Q× f value up to 56 000 GHz), and negative temperature coefficients of resonant frequencies ranging from -72,9 to -31,1 ppm/C. The dielectric constant increased with B 2+ ionic polarizability, and enhanced quality factor resulted from increased B-site ordering. The relationship between temperature coefficient of dielectric constant and tolerance factor was consistent compared to other perovskites.(11) The study explores the structure, sintering behavior, and microwave dielectric properties of A1−3x/2Lax(Mg1/2W1/2)O3 (A = Ba, Sr, Ca; 0,0 ≤ x ≤ 0,05) ceramics. Utilizing XRD, Raman, SEM, and a network analyzer, dielectric constants within the range of 19–20 were observed for all compounds. Q × f values exhibited significant variation based on bulk density, B-site ordering, and the presence of a second phase. The absolute value of τf decreased in the order of BLMW, SLMW, and CLMW series. Exceptional combination microwave dielectric properties were achieved for the BLMW sample with x = 0,04, sintered at 1450 °C/2 h: ɛr 20, Q × f = 87,680 GHz, and τf = −1,2 ppm/°C.(12) The microwave dielectric ceramics Ba2Ca1−xSrxWO6 (x=0–1) were synthesized using the two‐step solid‐state reaction method. The dielectric constant (ɛr) remained nearly unchanged, the quality factor (Q × f) consistently decreased, and the temperature coefficient of resonant frequency (τf) changed sign with increasing x. A favorable combination of microwave dielectric properties was achieved for Ba2Ca0,975Sr0,025WO6 sintered at 1250°C: ɛr=23,9, Q × f=80,200 GHz and τf=+18 ppm/°C.(13) However, prior studies on perovskite ceramics as filler materials in polymer matrices, particularly with epoxy, polyurethane, and silicone rubber, are limited. The present article aims to fabricate cost-effective microwave materials with investigated properties. Specifically, epoxy, polyurethane and silicone rubber/ Ba2MgWO6, Ba2ZnWO6, and Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6 composites were considered in the current study.

 

Experimental Works

In this work, polymer-ceramic composite materials were prepared by a simple hand-mixing technique. More precisely, the utilized polymers were (epoxy, polyurethane, and silicone rubber). Each polymer is blended with 5 % of Ba2MgWO6, Ba2ZnWO6, and Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6. The synthesis of Ba2MgWO6 polycrystalline powder, high-purity BaCO3, MgO, and WO3 were combined in a stoichiometric ratio suitable for the desired Ba2MgWO6 composition. Particularly, the average particle diameters of oxides as measured by the AFM technique were 44,04 nm, 37,27 nm, and 44,07 nm, respectively. The oxide mixture was mixed in an electrical blender for six hours. Subsequently, the mixture was calcined at 1200C for three hours and slowly cooled down to room temperature to avoid thermal stress. After calcination, the powders were milled and mixed for six hours. Then, the obtained powders were characterized using XRD to confirm their composition. Likewise, Ba2ZnWO6 was prepared following a similar procedure as that of Ba2MgWO6, using the ZnO powder with an average diameter of 47,78 nm. Moreover, the synthesis of Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6 was done using high-purity Bi2O3, WO3, and MoO3 powders with average diameters of 33,37 nm, 44,07 nm, and 34,35 nm, respectively. In particular, the oxides were weighed in appropriate stoichiometric ratios. After that, the oxide mixture was milled and mixed using the electrical blender for two hours. The resulting mixture was then calcined at 650C for two hours, followed by re-milling for two hours. The XRD analysis confirmed the compositions of the obtained powders. To assess the phase compositions of raw materials and complex oxides, the XRD analysis with Cu kα radiation was used. Furthermore, the dielectric properties of the polymer-ceramic composites were analyzed using a Transmission/Reflection method in the frequency range of 4–8 GHz utilizing a network analyzer. Additionally, the Nicholson-Ross-Weir (NRW) method was utilized to convert the scattering parameters (S11 and S21) into dielectric properties. (14,15,16) To the best of the authors’ knowledge, there has been no examination or investigation into the dielectric properties of Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6.

Moreover, figure 2 shows the dielectric constant of the blank polymers. On the other hand, figure 3 compares the dielectric constant of 5 % Ba2MgWO6/polymer composites with that of 5 % Ba2ZnWO6/polymer composites. In this regard, the dielectric constant of Ba2ZnWO6/polymer composites exhibits an increase at the frequency range of 7-7,5 GHz .In particular, Zn is known to exhibit higher polarizability than that of Mg. In this context, polarizability refers to the ease with which the electron cloud around an atom can be distorted by an applied electric field. Since Zn has more electrons and a larger atomic radius than those of Mg, it tends to have higher polarizability and can undergo greater distortion. This increased ability to polarize in Ba2ZnWO6 contributes to a higher dielectric constant in the reinforced polymer. Figure 3a illustrates the composite’s Ba2MgWO6 particles displaying a comparatively high dielectric constant of 46,9 at 5,56GHz, which might be a result of the material’s inherent characteristics, such as its elemental makeup and crystal structure, which, under the effect of the applied electromagnetic field, encourage stronger polarization. Moreover, the relaxation time of the material and its interaction with the epoxy matrix are two potential causes of the reduction in the dielectric constant at 6,96 GHz with a value of 20,4. In particular, the material’s response to the electric field might be less effective at this frequency, resulting in a lower dielectric constant. In figure 3b, Ba2ZnWO6 has a greater dielectric constant with a value of 83,3 at 7,1GHz over that of Ba2MgWO6, which could be because of the variations in its elemental make-up, electricity characteristics, or crystal structure. To this end, Ba2ZnWO6 is a good choice for applications that call for high dielectric constants at this particular frequency since the composite’s dielectric constant at the peak frequency shows that it possesses strong polarization properties. Figure 3c and d illustrate the considerable difference in the dielectric constant between the polyurethane/Ba2MgWO6 and the polyurethane/Ba2ZnWO6 composites at various frequencies. Specifically, at 4,48 GHz, the Ba2MgWO6 particles with the polyurethane matrix composite exhibit a relatively low dielectric constant value of 12,75. In contrast, the polyurethane/Ba2ZnWO6 composite demonstrates a significantly higher dielectric constant value of 86,54 at 7,12 GHz. In figure 3e, the silicone rubber/Ba2MgWO6 composite exhibits a relatively high dielectric constant at 5,58 GHz with a value of 50,4. On the other hand, the silicone rubber/Ba2ZnWO6 composite exhibits an even higher dielectric constant value of 57,3, as shown in figure 3f. Specifically, Ba2ZnWO6 appears to have strong polarization at 7,1 GHz, resulting in a high dielectric constant compared to that of Ba2MgWO6.

 As shown in figure 4, Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6 is a complex oxide and has high dielectric constants. Particularly, the presence of molybdenum and tungsten in the compound contributes to its enhanced polarizability, and thus, its higher dielectric constant. While Ba2MgWO6 (BMW) contains magnesium as one of its cations, and while it is a divalent cation, it may not provide the same level of polarizability as that of the combination of molybdenum and tungsten in Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6. Consequently, BMW tends to have a lower dielectric constant compared to that of Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6. Figure 4d shows the dielectric constant of Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6/polyurethane composite, which is 48 at 7,4 GHz. At 6,34 GHz, the dielectric constant is 102 for Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6/silicone rubber composite, indicating a quite high dielectric constant for this frequency. At 7,54 GHz, the dielectric constant is 18,5.

From the above discussion, this study implies that the frequency, the type of the polymer matrix, and the complex oxide have an important effect on the dielectric characteristics of the materials. Consequently, when constructing electrical components or devices, the frequency range and the composite material selection are crucial for ensuring the best performance for a wide range of applications.

Figure 5 shows the loss tangent values of the blank polymers. In addition, figure 6 shows that the loss tangent values indicate the extent of energy dissipation in the respective materials. More precisely, a lower loss tangent value suggests that the material exhibits lower energy dissipation and is more efficient in terms of dielectric performance. The comparison between the losses tangent of these composites suggests that the Ba2ZnWO6/polymer composites have a lower loss tangent than that of the Ba2MgWO6/polymer composites, which implies that the Ba2ZnWO6-based composites exhibit reduced energy dissipation and potentially better dielectric properties compared to those of the Ba2MgWO6- based composites.

Figure 7 demonstrates that as compared to Ba2MgWO6, Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6 often has a lower loss factor. With respect to flaws and energy dissipation sources, Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6 in particular might have a better ordered crystal structure. The fact that the loss factor is smaller suggests that Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6 is more effective in storing and minimizing energy losses while releasing electrical energy. But BMW is a different story. Decent dielectric substance with little capabilities for energy dissipation; additionally, it might a loss factor that is somewhat more than Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6. In the event, that the presence of magnesium in the crystal structure could be a factor in the higher energy dissipation. The results are concisely outlined in table 2.

In comparison to the unfilled polymer counterparts as shown in figure 2, there is a substantial enhancement in the dielectric properties of the composites due to different things. Ceramics often have a high intrinsic dielectric constant because they are insulators with a large number of electric dipoles. When these ceramics are incorporated into a polymer matrix, they introduce additional polarizability to the composite. This leads to increased dielectric constant because polarization is a key factor in determining the dielectric behavior of materials.At the interface between ceramic particles and the polymer matrix, there can be localized electric fields due to differences in permittivity. This interfacial polarization effect can significantly contribute to an enhanced dielectric constant.The presence of two or more materials with significantly different dielectric constants in a composite can lead to the MWS effect (Maxwell-Wagner-Sillars). This effect arises from charge accumulation at interfaces and contributes to higher dielectric constants in composites.(17,18)

CONCLUSIONS

In this work, a solid state reaction technique was effectively used to synthesize microwave dielectric ceramics, such as Ba2MgWO6, Ba2ZnWO6, and Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6, meeting the standard PDF cards. To create composites, these ceramics were subsequently manually mixed into polymer matrices. These composites’ microwave dielectric characteristics were assessed with a vector network analyzer, and the Nicholson-Ross Weir (NRW) method was used to determine their dielectric constant. Notably, the addition of ceramics Ba2MgWO6, Ba2ZnWO6, and Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6 to the polymer matrices resulted in notable modifications to the dielectric characteristics in the (4–8) GHz C–band, including the dielectric constant and the loss tangent. In comparison to the Ba2MgWO6/polymer composites, the Ba2ZnWO6/polymer composites showed a better dielectric constant and a lower loss factor at a frequency of 7–7,5 GHz and a filler volume percentage of 5 %. At the same filler volume percentage and frequency, the Bi2Mo0,5W0,5O6/polymer composites showed superior dielectric characteristics compared to the Ba2MgWO6/polymer composites.
