以机械合金法合成PPP/ZnO(聚对苯撑/ZnO)纳米复合材料。PPP/ZnO经球磨后混合充分,聚对苯撑将ZnO块体完全分割。热电性能研究表明:添加聚对苯撑后,复合材料塞贝克系数大大降低,当聚对苯撑添加量的质量分数大于2%时,纳米复合材料的塞贝克系数均低于100μV.K-1,远低于传统合金类热电材料的相应值;而复合材料的电导率却随聚对苯撑添加量增加而增大,当聚对苯撑添加量的质量分数增加到4%时,750K下的电导率上升至2500S.m-1,较单一材料的电导率提高5倍以上。复合材料的热导率较纯ZnO(10W.m-1.K-1)大大降低,并随聚对苯撑添加量的增加而降低,当其添加量的质量分数为4%时,其复合材料在800K时的热导率可降至1.6W.m-1.K-1。
Polyparaphenylene/ZnO (PPP/ZnO) nanocomposites were synthesized by mechanical alloying, and the powder of PPP and ZnO was mixed uniformly by ball-milling. The thermoelectric properties measurement showed that the Seebeck coefficient decreases significantly with the increase of PPP content, and the Seebeck coefficient of nanocomposites was lower than 100 V K-1 when the mass fraction of PPP was more than 2 %. This value is much lower than traditional thermoelectric materials. While the electrical conductivity increases with the increase of the PPP content, and the electrical conductivity up to 2 500 S - m-1 which was more than 5-fold than pure ZnO when the mass fraction of PPP was 4 %. The thermM conductivity of nanocomposite samples is smaller than those of pure ZnO (10 W .m-1 - K-1) and decreases drastically with increasing PPP content. The thermal conductivity can reduced to 1.6 W . m-1 - K-1 at 800 K when the mass fraction of PPP is 4 %.
