Abstract

Abstract:

Ca₃Co₄O₉/polyaniline bulk composites have been successfully fabricated by ball-milling and hot-pressing method. Our results indicate that the Seebeck coefficient can be increased nearly by 400% with adding 15 wt% Ca₃Co₄O₉ to the polyaniline. The thermal conductivity changes slightly with increasing filler content. The highest figure of merit, ZT can reach 5 × 10⁻⁴ at 329 K for these bulk composites, which is almost 50 times larger than that of pure polyaniline, suggesting that the polymer-thermoelectric oxide composites are promising candidates for light-weight, low-cost and non-toxic thermoelectric applications.

Key words: Polyaniline, Ca₃Co₄O₉, Thermoelectric, Composite
