Investigation of PSt-MWCNT concentration on epoxyacrylate photopolymerization and conductivity of polymer films

Abstract

Photopolymerization kinetics and conductivity changes of epoxyacrylate composites for various loading modified PSt-MWCNT weight fractions changing from 0.0025 to 0.2 wt.% were evaluated by performing photo differential scanning calorimetry (photo-DSC) and four point conductivity measurements. 0.2% PSt-MWCNT additive polymeric films had their electrical conductivity boosted by 6% more than non-additive polymeric films.
