▎ 摘  要

In this study, the role of iron sulfide (FeS) content on the structural and optical properties of graphene/polyvinyl alcohol (Gr/PVA) blend has been examined for environmental-friendly applications. Gr/PVA blend filled with FeS (0 to 10 wt%) were equipped using the casting technique. The prepared samples were studied via a scanning electron microscope, X-ray diffractometer, FT-IR and UV-visible-NIR spectrophotometers. XRD analysis shows that the crystallinity increases with increasing FeS concentration in the host Gr/PVA blend. UV-visible-NIR analysis shows that the direct optical bandgap of composite blends shrinks from 5.37 to 4.68 eV as FeS content is increased to 10 wt%. Also, it confirms that the refractive index and optical conductivity of Gr/PVA blend could be significantly enhanced via FeS filling. FeS filled Gr/PVA blends are recommended eco-friendly applications.
