Dielectric dispersion and relaxation behaviour of aqueous solution grown polymeric nanocomposite films consisting poly(vinyl alcohol) (PVA) alumina (Al2O3) (PVA–x wt% Al2O3 (x = 0, 1, 3 5)) have been studied in the frequency range from 20 Hz to 1 MHz by employing dielectric spectroscopy (DRS). It is found that at constant frequency, real part complex permittivity increases nonlinearly with incr...

The layer-by-layer nature of additive manufacturing is well matched to the layer construction stacked dielectric actuators, with inkjet printing offering a unique opportunity due its droplet-on-demand capability, suitable for multi-material processing at high resolution. This paper demonstrates use viscosity, jetting deposit two-part reactive inks functionalized nanofillers digitally manufactur...
