Microstructural studies on FeCl3 doped Hydroxypropyl methyl cellulose (HPMC)/Poly vinyl pyrrolidone (PVP) blend films were carried out using X-Ray diffraction studies. The XRD data revealed that the crystalline regions of the HPMC/PVP blend film decreases up to a certain percentage of FeCl3 and then increases. Electrical conductivity studies on these doped films suggest complex formation due to doping which affects microstructure and also ac conductivity of polymer films. All these results were analyzed and explained on the basis of micro structural modification of HPMC/ PVP blends as function of dopant concentration. key words: XRD, AC Conductivity, Polymer Composites
