Investigation of Chloro Pentaammine Cobalt(III) Chloride- Polyvinyl Alcohol Composites

Abstract

Conductive polymer composites have been widely used in industrial applications, such as  biomedical devices , self-heating materials, electrostatic dissipation and over current protectors. This paper investigate the study of the effects of Chloro  Pentaammine Cobalt(III) Chloride complexes on  Electrical  properties of polyvinyl alcohol. samples were prepared using casting technique. The experimental Results show that the electrical conductivity  of polyvinyl alcohol is increased with increasing the weight percentages of  Chloro  Pentaammine Cobalt(III) Chloride complexes and temperature. The activation energy of D.C electrical conductivity is decreased  with increase of Chloro  Pentaammine Cobalt(III) Chloride complexes concentration.
