Abstract

Polymer composites are an interesting project for optical devices and medical applications. The influence of modified graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets with nano-chitosan (NCS) nanomaterials on two vinyl polymers was investigated. Polyvinyl pyrrolidone (PVP), polyvinyl alcohol (PVA), and polyacrylic acid (PAA) reinforced with nanomaterials to fabricated PVA-PAA/GO@NCS and PVP-PAA/GO@NCS composites. Strong interfacial interaction exhibited by Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy. X-ray diffraction showed a semi-crystalline structure. A fine dispersion of nanomaterials was exhibited by image scanning electron microscopy. Optical and transmission electron microscopy revealed the PVA composite’s core–shell formulation, whereas the PVA composite and shrimp shell behavior of PVP composites. The dielectric constant results reduced from 18 to 10.36 for PVA composites and 10.4 to 9.3 for PVP composites. For the dielectric loss, the results enhanced from 15.50 to 1.79 and 2 to 1.4, respectively. The real and imaginary optical dielectric constants improved significantly compared with blended polymers, and composites with PVP presented better results than composites with PVA. In the PVA, the electrical conductivity of composites was enhanced compared to that of the PVP group. Interestingly, PVA nanocomposites revealed a better cytotoxic impact of up to 80% instead of 56% of PVP composites of anti-breast cancer (MTTassa). These interesting findings presented interesting materials for optoelectronic and biological applications.
