Evaluation of thermal conductivity models and dielectric properties in metal oxide-filled poly(butylene succinate-co-adipate) composites.

ABSTRACT: This study examines how various nanofillers impact thermal conductivity, dielectric characteristics, and electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding potential of bio-based and biodegradable poly(butylene succinate-co-adipate) (PBSA). TiO₂, NiFe₂O₄, Fe₂O₃, and Fe₃O₄ were selected as fillers for nanocomposites at 4-50 vol.% (12-81 wt.%). The nanocomposites were analyzed in three domains: structural (scanning electron microscopy, energy dispersive X-ray spectroscopy mapping, density, tensile testing), thermal (light flash analysis, literature models), and dielectric (AC conductivity, permittivity, EM shielding effectiveness (SE)). The investigated fillers showed good dispersion and compatibility with the PBSA matrix
