Abstract

Electroconducting structural polymer-based nanocomposites were prepared by incorporating carbon nanotubes (CNTs) into commercially available Polybond (PB) using the melt compounding technique. The structural, morphological, electrical, thermal, mechanical, and chemical properties of the nanocomposites were investigated via Fourier-transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), differential scanning calorimetry, thermogravimetric analysis, high resistance meter, a Universal Testing Machine (UTM), and chemical resistivity measurements, respectively. FTIR spectra showed the successful grafting of CNT functional groups onto polymer chains. SEM analysis confirmed that the optimum state of dispersion was made for the nanocomposites. Electrical conductivity, melting transition temperatures, mechanical properties, and chemical resistance were improved by incorporating CNTs into PB.
