Description
Summary:<p dir="ltr">We introduced a novel concept on energy harvesting nanofluids of hybrid piezoelectric ceramic and polymeric (BaTiO<sub>3</sub> and PVdF) materials in PDMS. Rheology, rheo-microscope and impedance spectroscopy complementary enabled the elucidation of the development of microstructure and probing the flow-induced structural transitions. Percolated CNTs enhanced the network mechanically and electrically and improved the output voltage (OV). Traces of PVdF further increased the OV to ca. 7.5 V in their hybrid suspensions.</p><h2>Other Information</h2><p dir="ltr">Published in: Journal of Molecular Liquids<br>License: <a href="http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/" target="_blank">http://creativecommons.org/licenses/by/4.0/</a><br>See article on publisher's website: <a href="https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.molliq.2023.123186" target="_blank">https://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.molliq.2023.123186</a></p>
