Both the polyester resin matrix-based polymer ZnO nano composites and pure polyester sheet were synthesised using the solution casting method. The crystalline structure of the nano-particles was examined inside using X-ray diffraction (XRD). The fundamental polymer composition, additives, organic contaminants, and purity were all assessed by FTIR. A minor alteration in the absorption bands was seen in the polyester system with ZnO added. The thermal properties were examined using differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) and thermo gravimetric analysis (TGA), and the results unmistakably demonstrated the creation of a highly cross-linked polyester molecular structure or improved free volume fractions in polymer nano composites. A mechanical analyzer’s tensile and flexural strength tests revealed the potential for nanoparticle aggregation due to a strong interaction with resin. To calculate the relative permittivity and the loss of tangents (tan), dielectric studies had been used. Analysis of the hydrophobic properties of the pure and ZnO polyester nano composite.
