Characterization of Newly Developed Conductive Composites.

Abstract

Conductive composites consisting of various thermoplastics filled with conductive chopped fibers have been studied. The thermoplastics chosen were polyphenylene sulfide (PPS), polyetherimide (PEI), polyamide (Nylon), polycarbonate (PC), and liquid crystalline polyester (LCP). The chopped fibers included graphite (Gr), stainless (SS), aluminum flake (Al Fl), and nickel coated graphite (NiGr). Drop weight impact and tensile properties were determined. Photomicroscopy and scanning electron microscopy were performed on several composites.
