Introduction
In recent years, the exposure of polymeric composites to gamma radiation has gained considerable attention from numerous researchers due to their significance in industrial and technical applications to enhance and improve various physical properties, including optical and electrical properties [1][2][3][4].
The gamma irradiation technique has been employed by researchers since it is wellknown to be one of the most highly effective ways to enhance the physical and chemical properties of polymeric composites [5,6].
The published scientific research in the literature indicates that gamma radiation has a profound impact on the physical and chemical properties of polymer composites.These effects include structural modifications, scission or cross-linking, alterations in the degree of filler particle aggregation, the formation of holes, changes in the band gap value, and the generation of more radicals and electric dipoles, as has been extensively documented in studies [7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15].
In a related study [16], the focus was directed towards evaluating the influence of varying gamma irradiation doses on a composite material composed of polycarbonate and polybutylene terephthalate.Their investigation yielded noteworthy findings, notably a reduction in the band gap energy, which consequently led to an increase in electrical conductivity.This enhancement in electrical conductivity was attributed to structural and optical modifications induced by the gamma irradiation process.Expanding on this theme, the research in [17] delved into the impact of gamma irradiation on nanocomposite films consisting of polycaprolactone and zinc oxide.Intriguingly, their findings suggested that the structural properties of the irradiated samples remained largely unaltered even when exposed to a substantial gamma dose of 25 kGy.In a parallel line of inquiry presented in [18], the effects of gamma irradiation on film samples crafted from polycarbonate, specifically Makrofol-E, were explored across a wide spectrum of gamma doses, ranging from 10 kGy to 200 kGy.Their results uncovered a remarkable enhancement in the radiation resistance of Makrofol-E, rendering it exceptionally suitable for applications within the medical product industry.Notably, prior investigations, as in [19], have primarily focused on examining the impact of temperature variations between 25 • C and 100 • C, as well as exploring a frequency range spanning from 10 Hz to 10 6 Hz.The study referenced in work [20] demonstrated that gamma irradiation causes notable modifications to the electrical properties of epoxy resin, impacting both its thermally stimulated discharge behavior and DC conductivity, and these alterations are associated with degradation and cross-linking processes.In the study referenced in [21], gamma irradiation of epoxy-lead oxide composites led to changes in chemical structure, surface morphology, and mechanical properties, along with reduced thermal stability at higher gamma doses, while the gamma attenuation properties and XRD spectrum remained unaffected even under significant irradiation.The study [22] explored how gamma radiation impacts thin epoxy resin films.XRD analysis revealed structural changes with varying film thickness and gamma doses ranging from 0 to 120 kGy.It showed a shift from amorphous to crystalline phases at lower thicknesses and higher radiation doses, enhanced by the hardened material.SEM confirmed this improved crystal morphology and uniform microstructure.
In our previous work [23], we studied epoxy-alumina (Al 2 O 3 ) composites, particularly their AC electrical and optical properties.It was found that their AC electrical conductivity and dielectric behavior are influenced by both the applied frequency and alumina concentration.Additionally, optical properties, including the absorption coefficient and localized state width, varied with alumina concentration.
The main goal of this work is to study the effects of gamma irradiation on the AC electrical properties and parameters of highly cross-linked epoxy resin as a filled matrix with different concentrations of bisphenol A-based polycarbonate by exposing them to different gamma radiation doses, in order to enhance their electrical conductivity.

Samples Preparation
The samples in this study were prepared at the C.N.R. laboratories in Naples, Italy, following the procedure outlined in reference [19]; 20 g of polycarbonate with a numberaverage molecular weight of 12 × 10 3 and a weight-average molecular weight of 31 × 10 3 was carefully dissolved in 39.6 g of epoxy resin, specifically Novolac DEN 438.This dissolution process extended over a 5 h period and was carried out at a controlled temperature of 220 • C. Subsequently, the mixture's temperature was gradually reduced to 80 • C, at which point, 40.4 g of nadic methyl anhydride (MNA) and 0.4 g of the accelerator benzyl dimethylamine were added.The curing process was then executed, maintaining a precise temperature of 120 • C for 20 h.These procedures culminated in the production of a visually transparent sheet of material.

Gamma Irradiation
The composite samples, consisting of highly cross-linked epoxy resin as the matrix and filled with bisphenol A-based polycarbonate at varying concentrations of 0%, 4%, 8%, 10%, and 15% by weight, were subjected to gamma radiation exposure at absorbed doses of 0 Gy, 100 Gy, 300 Gy, and 500 Gy.The irradiation experiments were carried out under ambient conditions, utilizing a 60 Co gamma source with an average energy of 1.25 MeV and a dose rate of 4163.511Gy/hr, at the gamma irradiation facility of the Jordan Atomic Energy Commission.

Electrical Parameters Calculations
To measure the impedance magnitude (Z) and the phase angle (ϕ), the Low-Frequency Impedance Analyzer (HP model 4192) was used, while the complex impedance (Z * ) with the real (Z r ) and imaginary (Z i ) components were calculated using the following famous formula: where Z r = Zcosϕ and Z i = Zsinϕ.
The dielectric constant (ε r ) is given by: (2) and dielectric loss (ε i ) is given by: where C o is the capacitance of the sample two plates, given by the following formula: where A is the disk area, and d is the distance between the two plates of the sample.The AC electrical conductivity ( σ AC ) of the sample was calculated via: where f is the applied frequency and o is the permittivity of free space.The activation energy for any thermally activated transport process is calculated using the Arrhenius equation: where: σ is the conductivity and σ o is the pre-exponential factor of conductivity, which measures the units of conductivity; k B is the Boltzmann constant; T is the temperature in Kelvin; E a is the activation energy for the migration of free charges.

Results and Discussion
This study's Figure 1 presents an analysis of the behavior of Z * as a function of the frequency ranging from 200 kHz to 1 MHz, both pre-and post gamma irradiation, for our highly cross-linked epoxy resin/bisphenol A-based polycarbonate samples.Figure 1a illustrates the pre-irradiation Z * values, in the range of 0.907 × 10 5 to 0.183 × 10 5 ohms.
Figure 1b illustrates the post-irradiation case, where the samples were subjected to a dose of 100 Gy, with a composition of 85 wt% epoxy and 15 wt% polycarbonate.Notably, the Z * values following irradiation are lower when compared to their pre-irradiation counterparts.Specifically, they decreased from the initial range of 0.907 × 10 5 -0.183 × 10 5 ohms to a range of 0.886 × 10 5 -0.180 × 10 5 ohms, while Figure 1c shows that the Z * values further decreased to 0.819 × 10 5 -0.164 × 10 5 ohms after exposure to a dose of 300 Gy.Finally, Figure 1d illustrates the Z * behavior post irradiation with a more substantial dose of 500 Gy.Here, the Z * values decreased to 0.781 × 10 5 -0.158 × 10 5 ohms, and the results of the Z * analysis for all samples are shown in Table 1.From the above results, it can be concluded that the consistent decrease in Z * values post irradiation indicates that the charge carriers within the samples are influenced by radiation-induced scission of the composite structure.This scission process generates additional free charges that become trapped in localized sites within the polymeric composites [24].
The lower Z * values are likely attributed to the energy released from gamma radiation, which releases more free charges into the system.Additionally, it is plausible that the radiation creates holes within the material, potentially facilitating the movement of these free charges and enhancing the conductivity of the composite samples [8].

The lower  * values are likely attributed to the energy released from gamma radiation, which releases more free charges into the system.Additionally, it is plausible that the radiation creates holes within the material, potentially facilitating the movement of these free charges and enhancing the conductivity of the composite samples [8].In Figure 2, one result of the  behavior is presented as a function of the frequency both pre-and post exposure to gamma irradiation doses of 100 Gy, 300 Gy, and 500 Gy, maintaining a sample composition of 85 wt% epoxy and 15 wt% polycarbonate, within a frequency range of 200 kHz to 1 MHz.The pre-irradiation  values are shown in Figure 2a, and they fall within a range of 4.372 to 4.315; and for the post-irradiation of 100 Gy gamma dose, the  values are shown in Figure 2b.Remarkably, the  values for the irradiated samples are relatively higher compared to their non-irradiated counterparts.Specifically, they increased from an initial range of 4.372-4.315to a new range of 4.474-4.399.In Figure 2c, at a dose of 300 Gy, the  values show an increase, within the range of 4.841-4.767.Figure 2d extends this analysis to a gamma irradiation dose of 500 Gy.In this case, the  values continued to rise and spanned a range of 5.081-5.001,and the results of the  analysis for all samples are shown in Table 2. Therefore, the  value increases with the rising dose of ionizing gamma radiation due to polymer chain scission and the formation of a few numbers of defect sites within the composites' band gaps as the radiation passes through them.These defects trap the charge carriers found within the band gaps of the samples.Furthermore, gamma radiation enhances the samples' capability to store charges.In Figure 2, one result of the ε r behavior is presented as a function of the frequency both pre-and post exposure to gamma irradiation doses of 100 Gy, 300 Gy, and 500 Gy, maintaining a sample composition of 85 wt% epoxy and 15 wt% polycarbonate, within a frequency range of 200 kHz to 1 MHz.The pre-irradiation ε r values are shown in Figure 2a, and they fall within a range of 4.372 to 4.315; and for the post-irradiation of 100 Gy gamma dose, the ε r values are shown in Figure 2b.Remarkably, the ε r values for the irradiated samples are relatively higher compared to their non-irradiated counterparts.Specifically, they increased from an initial range of 4.372-4.315to a new range of 4.474-4.399.In Figure 2c, at a dose of 300 Gy, the ε r values show an increase, within the range of 4.841-4.767.Figure 2d extends this analysis to a gamma irradiation dose of 500 Gy.In this case, the ε r values continued to rise and spanned a range of 5.081-5.001,and the results of the ε r analysis for all samples are shown in Table 2.

Figure 3 illustrates the variations in ε i as a function of the frequency, within the range of 200 kHz to 1 MHz, both pre-and post exposure to gamma irradiation at different doses (100, 300, and 500 Gy) for our highly cross-linked epoxy resin/bisphenol A-based samples with an 85 wt% epoxy and 15 wt% polycarbonate.Pre-irradiation, the ε i values for the samples fell within the range of 0.134 to 0.116, as seen in Figure 3a.Notably, an intriguing trend emerged, revealing that the ε i values decreced with escalations in the frequency.This is because as the frequency is raised, the generated charges rapidly lose their ability to follow the reverse field, which reduces their electronic oscillations [27].Post irradiation at a dose of 100 Gy, Figure 3b shows a notable enhancement in the ε i values when compared to the non-irradiated samples.This enhancement led to a shift in the ε i range, from 0.134-0.116to 0.137-0.119.Subsequently, when subjected to a higher irradiation dose of 300 Gy, as seen in Figure 3c, the ε i values further increased, spanning a range of 0.149 to 0.130 over the same frequency range of 200 kHz to 1 MHz.The most striking effect was observed at the highest irradiation dose of 500 Gy (see Figure 3d), where the ε i values exhibited a significant increase, extending their range from 0.157 to 0.138, and the results of the ε i analysis for all samples are shown in Table 3.

Conclusions
This study investigated the electrical properties of highly cross-linked epoxy resin and bisphenol A-based polycarbonate composite materials before and after exposure to gamma radiation.Our findings reveal a significant influence of gamma radiation on the electrical behavior of these composite materials.Post irradiation, there was a consistent decrease in the complex impedance values (Z * ), suggesting that radiation-induced scission of the composite structure led to the release of additional free charges, enhancing conductivity.The dielectric constant (ε r ) and dielectric loss (ε i ) increased with higher doses of radiation, as well as with higher concentrations of polycarbonate in the samples, indicating the formation of defect sites and the trapping of charge carriers.The AC electrical conductivity (σ ac ) exhibited a pronounced increase post irradiation, which was more prominent with higher doses of radiation.Temperature also played a crucial role in influencing the electrical conductivity, with higher temperatures resulting in higher σ ac values.Moreover, the activation energy ( E a ) decreased with increasing doses of gamma radiation, reflecting structural modifications within the material induced by the radiation.These findings underscore the profound impact of gamma radiation on the electrical properties of composite materials.The creation of defects, free radicals, and increased electron densities within these materials contribute to the observed changes in their electrical behavior.These findings hold immense significance for applications across various domains, including the science of materials, radiation technology, and advanced composite material design.Moreover, they open avenues for further investigations into tailoring the electrical properties of materials via controlled irradiation, presenting promising opportunities for innovation and technological advancement.
