A review and analysis of electrical percolation in carbon nanotube polymer composites (2009, methodology): “Maximum conductivities of 10,000 S/m have been reported for PMMA containing 10 wt% SOCl2 treated SWCNT [17], of 3000 S/m for PANI filled with 15 wt% SWCNT [18], and of 2000 S/m for PU with 15 wt% MWCNT [19].”
Morphology and Crystallization Behavior of HDPE/CNT Nanocomposite (2006, methodology): “39 41 When near IR was used to “heat” CNTs, leading to the melting of the physical cross‐linking points (polymer crystals) and 50% more recovery stress than the pristine resin were reported.”
Improvement in electrical, thermal and mechanical properties of epoxy by filling carbon nanotube (2008, methodology): “Different polymer/CNT nanocomposites have been synthesized by incorporating CNTs into various polymer matrices, such as polyamides [12], polyimides [13–15], epoxy [16], polyurethane [17, 18] and polypropylene [19–21].”
A review of the electrical and mechanical properties of carbon nanofiller-reinforced polymer composites (2018, methodology): “To achieve good dispersion of CNTs in the TPU matrix, chemical modification with acids [52], surfactants [51], in situ polymerization [49, 53, 56, 59] are mostly used procedures.”
