Abstract

This data sheet introduces and quantifies the enhancement obtained in electrical properties from nano-particle modification of polymers, for both thermoset (epoxy) and thermoplastic (polypropylene and PEEK). The nano-particles considered are nanoscale carbon-based fillers considered are single walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs), multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWNTs) and carbon black (CB).
