Abstract

The low dielectric constant (ε) of polyhedral oligomeric silsesquioxanes (POSS) was generally attributed to its porous structure. In this work, we propose a new mechanism for the low ε of the POSS-based nanocomposites from the interfacial effect point of view. The investigation on a typical nanocomposite, polystyrene/POSS, found that POSS molecules take crystallization to form crystalline nanoplatelets (PCPs) in PS. Correspondingly, the dielectric constant can be reduced to around 2.30. A detailed investigation excluded the possible influence of the chain stacking and chain mobility of the polymers on ε. It was demonstrated, for the first time, that the ε shows a high correlation with interface area which is reflected by a rigid amorphous fraction (RAF), thus revealing the key role of the interfacial effect on reducing the low dielectric constant.

Physical Chemistry Chemical Physics (PCCP) is an international journal co-owned by 19 physical chemistry and physics societies from around the world. This journal publishes original, cutting-edge research in physical chemistry, chemical physics and biophysical chemistry. To be suitable for publication in PCCP, articles must include significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry; this is the most important criterion that reviewers and Editors will judge against when evaluating submissions. The journal has a broad scope and welcomes contributions spanning experiment, theory, computation and data science. Topical coverage includes spectroscopy, dynamics, kinetics, statistical mechanics, thermodynamics, electrochemistry, catalysis, surface science, quantum mechanics, quantum computing and machine learning. Interdisciplinary research areas such as polymers and soft matter, materials, nanoscience, energy, surfaces/interfaces, and biophysical chemistry are welcomed if they demonstrate significant innovation and/or insight into physical chemistry. Joined experimental/theoretical studies are particularly appreciated when complementary and based on up-to-date approaches.
