Polymer Bulletin Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Summary

The effect of weight fraction (1–4%) of NiCl2 dopant on some parameters characterising the space charge limited conduction (SCLC) in polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA) composites was investigated. The studied parameters are the concentrations of traps, trapped and free charge carriers. It was implied that NiCl2 acts as an efficient electron acceptor and this was attributed to the formation of Ni11CL4 2−.
