Nanotube Networks in Polymer Nanocomposites: Rheology and Electrical Conductivity
TL;DR: In this article, single-walled carbon nanotube (SWNT)/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) nanocomposites were prepared via coagulation method providing uniform dispersion of the nanotubes in the polymer matrix.

TL;DR: It is shown that carbon nanotubes can surpass nanoclays as effective flame-retardant additives if they form a jammed network structure in the polymer matrix, such that the material as a whole behaves rheologically like a gel.

Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of nanotube alignment on percolation conductivity in carbon nanotube/polymer composites
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors show that the percolation conductivity of a stick network depends on alignment as well as concentration, and that the highest conductivity occurs for slightly aligned, rather than isotropic sticks.
Journal ArticleDOI
Coagulation method for preparing single‐walled carbon nanotube/poly(methyl methacrylate) composites and their modulus, electrical conductivity, and thermal stability
TL;DR: In this paper, a coagulation method providing a better dispersion of single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWNTs) in a polymer matrix was used to produce SWNT/poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) composites.
