PVA-based polymer electrolytes were prepared with various concentrations of CdCl2using solvent casting method. Prepared polymer films were investigated using line profile analysis employing X-ray diffraction (XRD) data. XRD results show that the crystallite size decreases and then increases with increase in CdCl2. AC conductivity in these polymer increases films first and then decreases. These observations are in agreement with XRD results. The highest ionic conductivity of 1.68E− 08 Scm−1was observed in 4% of CdCl2in PVA polymer blend. Crystallite ellipsoids for different concentrations of CdCl2are computed here using whole pattern powder fitting (WPPF) indicating that crystallite area decreases with increase in the ionic conductivity.

Abstract Poly(hydroxybutyrate-co-hydroxyvalerate) (PHBV) is one of the most promising biodegradable polymers used in many applications due to its biodegradability and non-toxicity. However, the usage of PHBV in electronic, biomedical, and biosensor applications has been limited due to its poor electrical properties. This study shows a simple method of producing and enhancing the electrical conductivity of PHBV-based biocomposites by adding graphene nanoplatelet (GNP) as a conductive filler. The biocomposite films were prepared using the solvent casting method, consist of five GNP loading (0-5 wt. %). The prepared PHBV/GNP biocomposites show enhanced electrical conductivity compared to neat PHBV. PHBV/GNP biocomposite with 5 wt. % filler loading exhibits the highest electrical conductivity at 3.83 × 10−3 S/cm. Higher crystalline regions in the PHBV/GNP biocomposites have facilitated the transfer of electrons between PHBV, resulting in the formation of conductive biocomposites, as evident from X-ray diffraction (XRD) characterization.

ABSTRACTWe have investigated by x-ray diffraction defect structures in 6H-SiC after neutron irradiation with different fluences and followed by different annealing procedures. An interpretation along a model of Klimanek [1, 4–6] shows, that higher fluences lead to a stronger than linear reduction of the correlation length, whereas higher annealing temperatures correlate with a better recovery of the correlation length. In addition defects of 1st kind created by irradiation are reduced by annealing. We find that annealing changes the character of the defects and it accentuates a defect structure already present in the original samples.

AbstractX-ray diffraction line-profile analysis on tetragonal forms of SnO2 (cassiterite), MnO2 (pyrolusite), and previously studied TiO2 (rutile), which were subjected to high pressure shock loading, show that residual lattice strain and coherent “crystal” size are a function of shock parameters. An interesting observation on a sample of MnO2 concerns the recovery of cubic Mn2O3 (bixbyite) in the material subjected to 22 GPa, indicating a shock-induced chemical synthesis.

Dislocation Densities

Dislocation densities of dispersion-strengthened copper with aluminum oxide, namely GlidCop were evaluated employing the X-ray line profile analysis using the modified Williamson-Hall and modified Warren-Averbach method. X-ray diffraction profiles for GldCop samples with compressive strains applied at ambient temperature were measured with synchrotron radiation. The dislocation densities of GlidCop with compressive strain ranging from 0 – 2.7 % were on the order of 1.5×1014 – 6.6×1014 m-2.

Dislocation Densities

The dislocation densities and crystallite size distributions in ball-milled fluorides,MF2(M= Ca, Sr, Ba and Cd), of the fluorite structure type have been determined as a function of milling time by X-ray diffraction line-profile analysis. The treatment has been based on the concept of dislocation contrast to explain strain anisotropy by means of the modified Williamson–Hall and Warren–Averbach approaches and a whole-profile fitting method using physically based functions. In most cases, the measured and calculated patterns are in perfect agreement; however, in some specific cases, the first few measured profiles appear to be narrower than the calculated ones. This discrepancy is interpreted as the result of an interference effect similar to that described by Rafaja, Klemm, Schreiber, Knapp & Kužel [J. Appl. Cryst.(2004),37, 613–620]. By taking into account and correcting for this interference effect, the microstructure of ball-milled fluorides is determined in terms of dislocation structure and size distributions of coherent domains. A weak coalescence of the crystallites is observed at longer milling periods. An incubation period in the evolution of microstrains is in correlation with the homologous temperatures of the fluorides.
