| Summary: | The composites PVA/PEO filled with various concentrations of CsCl samples, which were prepared for using a solvent casting technique and studied via Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), ultraviolet – visible (UV–Vis), X-ray spectroscopy, Scanning electron microscopy (SEM), AC conductivity and dielectric properties to use as sensor in electronic devices. The FTIR indicated the interaction between PVA/PEO and CsCl. From data of UV. Vis. was observed band gap (Eg) reduces with addition CsCl to polymer blend. The XRD shows the degree of crystallinity (χ%) decreasing with increasing concentration of CsCl from 2.93 to 2.45. The SEM of the surface of composite PVA/PEO filled with various concentrations of CsCl in magnification 1500 times its change with compare of pure blend. From TGA was observed improvement in the thermal stability of the samples after addition of CsCl. The AC conductivity rise more rapidly with temperature and associated with activation energy Ea, for conduction and enhanced with increasing both temperature and frequency.
