Abstract

Dielectric constant is an essential property that is required for a variety of electrical applications. An important challenge is to be able to control on the dielectric characteristics of electrical materials using nanotechnology techniques. Computational simulation programs have the potential to join theory and experimental work as a third powerful research methodology; therefore, this paper studied the enhancing and controlling the dielectric properties of electrical industrial materials (polyethylene, polypropylene acrylonitrile butadiene styrene, polyvinyl chloride, polyimide, polyetherimide, and polyethylene terephthalate) using various nanoparticles based on recent theoretical models for computing the effective response of nanocomposites. In addition, dielectric characterization has been controlled using specified optimal concentrations of nanoparticles.
