Abstract
PVA/MgMn1.8Co0.2O4 composite films were prepared using the solution casting technique. Also, incorporating MgMn1.8Co0.2O4 nanoparticles into the polymer matrix influences the overall properties of the composition that enhances the physical, mechanical, and optical properties of PVA films to be applicable for various applications. The XRD analysis revealed a semi-crystalline structure for PVA samples proving the impact of the MgMn1.8Co0.2O4 nanoparticles on the phase purity of PVA showed a strong interaction between them. SEM investigations exhibit accumulated particles with different shapes with spherical grain sizes ranging between nanoscale and accumulated nano-sphere grains (40–100 nm). The EDX analysis successfully incorporated Mg, Mn, and Co elements into the composite material. The thermal stability, decomposition, and response were investigated for the obtained films, and (PVA)50(MgMn1.8Co0.2O4)50 showed the lowest residual mass with 6%. Mechanical testing showed the impact of MgMn1.8Co0.2O4 nanoparticle on the tensile strength, elongation at break, and Young's modulus, which lowered the ductility of PVA films, where (PVA)50 (MgMn1.8Co0.2O4)50 exhibits the higher Brittleness 4.75⤫10–3 (Mpa)−2. The magnetic hysteresis loops and magnetic saturation obtained from VSM exhibit that MgMn1.8Co0.2O4 promotes magnetic domains inside the PVA matrix, indicating that the particle size and nature of these nanoparticles affected the magnetic properties of PVA. Furthermore, optical characterization investigated the optical absorbance and Reflectance properties. The band gap for MgMn1.8Co0.2O4 was 2.5 eV, where PVA pure film was 4.6 eV, and the band gap lowered with an increase in MgMn1.8Co0.2O4 concentration till it reached 3 eV in case of the highest content of it. These findings contribute to a deeper understanding of this novel composite material's potential applications and performance optimizations in various fields, such as electronics, sensors, and biomedical engineering.
