In the current study, black tea leaves extract solution (TES) as a new green technique is used to fabricate metal-polyphenols complexes (X-polyphenols complex; X= Cu+2, Ce+3, and Cd+2). The metal-complexes are integrated with poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) to prepare PVA composite films. The electrical properties of pure PVA and composites are characte
