Comparison study of carbon black (CB) used as conductive filler in epoxy and polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA)

Abstract: Abstract A comparison study between carbon black (CB) filled thermoset (epoxy) and thermoplastic, polymethylmethacrylate (PMMA), was done in this research. CB was introduced as the conductive filler in epoxy and PMMA at different filler loading, which ranged from 5 vol.% to 20 vol.%. The physical, mechanical, electrical and thermal stability properties were investigated. The incorporation of CB into both epoxy and PMMA increased the density, improved the thermal stability and e… Show more

“…Pure PMMA matrix exhibits high flexture modulus due to the intrinsic properties of PMMA. [ 36 ] The flexural modulus of the composites increased distinctly with the addition of K‐CB filler (Figure 5B). The K‐CB filler particles could act as good reinforcing agent in the PMMA matrix.…”

“…At high K-CB loading, filler particles are easily agglomerated in its primary and secondary structure. [35,36] With increasing K-CB content, the interaction between filler-filler may be severe compared to polymer-filler interaction, which deteriorates its mechanical strength. The filler agglomeration acts as stress concentration points in nanocomposites resulting in inefficient stress distribution.…”

“…In this paper, we report on the effect of PMMA‐spacer into the CB filled epoxy adhesives with a constant CB loading at 15 vol.%, which was the optimum loading determined from previous study, and the PMMA‐spacer content ranged from 10, 20, 30, 40, and 50 vol.% were used. The focus of this study is to investigate the effect of PMMA‐spacer content towards the electrical conductivity properties at fixed 15 vol.% CB loading, where the selective localization mechanism occurred at room temperature.…”
