What is it about?

In the present research polyvinylidene fluoride was modified by loading the ceramic titanium boride (TiB2) through sonication route. The structure, morphology, thermal, dielectric and softness properties were disclosed as a function of TiB2 weight fraction composition. The decreased interplanar distance d (Å) and increased crystallinity D (Å) confirmed by X-ray diffraction technique. The C=C stretching band is shifted due to loading (wt%) of TiB2 confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. Electronic structure (π–π* transition at λ = 271 nm) demonstrated the decrease in direct band gap
