Article Synopsis
- Composites made of carbon nanotubes and polymers are increasingly popular in energy storage and electronic devices due to their superior properties, but their electrical performance is significantly affected by temperature.
- * Research focused on thin films of multi-wall carbon nanotube/epoxy composites revealed that resistivity shows distinct behavior at various temperatures, with notable changes occurring near the glass transition temperature.
- * The study demonstrated that temperature cycling erases certain thermal history-dependent behaviors, suggesting that physical aging of the epoxy matrix impacts the conductive network of carbon nanotubes and leads to changes in resistivity.
