Multifiller carbon nanotube, graphene, and carbon black composite filaments: A path to versatile electromaterials
Abstract
Addressing the growing demand for conductive and flexible composites, this research focuses on producing thermoplastic composite fibers made of polyurethane and carbon nanomaterials featuring the highest possible electrical conductivity. Based on a recently developed methodology enabling the formation of very high filler contents of 40% w/w, this work presents a systematic investigation of the role of all the materials used during the manufacturing process and selects the materials that ensure the best electrical performance. The results show that the highest electrical conductivity and current-carrying capacities are obtained when dimethylformamide is used as a solvent, and small amounts of AKM surfactant aid the de-agglomeration of carbon nanomaterials. It is also shown that the hybridization of MWCNTs filler with graphene nanoplatelets and small amounts of carbon black is beneficial for the electrical properties. However, the highest performance is achieved with SWCNTs as fillers, exhibiting two orders of magnitude higher electrical conductivities of 6.17 × 104 S/m.
