Composites prepared from the waterborne polyurethane cationomers-modified graphene. Part II. Electrical properties of the polyurethane films

Abstract: The research was planned to test electrical properties of polymer films made from polyurethane cationomers with 0–2 wt.% graphene admixture. The cationomers were synthetized in the reaction of 4,4′-methylenebis(phenyl isocyanate), polycaprolactone diol (M = 2000), N-methyldiethanolamine, and formic acid. It was found that addition of approx. 2 wt.% of graphene causes the loss of volume resistivity by three orders of magnitude and percolation threshold is already set at approx. 1 wt.%. The frequency characteris… Show more

“…In the case of membrane with 30 wt% IL, ionic conductivity increased from the order of 10 -10 to the order of 10 -5 S cm -1 as temperature increased from -10 to 100°C [50]. The introduction of carbon nanotubes additionally increases the electrical conductivity of polyurethane coatings and independently contributes to the increase in thermal and mechanical properties, as demonstrated in few papers [13,46].…”

“…Graphene has emerged as an interesting reinforcement candidate because of its extraordinary thermal, mechanical, and electronic properties [12]. The incorporation of graphene [13] and reduced graphene oxide [14][15][16] in a WPU matrix has been reported to improve the electrical, thermal, mechanical, and barrier properties of its nanocomposites. However, these nanomaterials tend to agglomerate through van der Waals interactions that may compromise their good dispersion in the polymer matrix.…”

“…In situ polymerization is the most effective way of improving the dispersion and exfoliation of graphene in a matrix and can create a covalent bonding interface between graphene and the matrix; however, the polymerization process is usually accompanied by a viscosity increase that hinders manipulation and limits the load fraction. To resolve these issues, Piotr Król et al . reported that the multistep method of synthesis of the polyurethane cationomer was allowed at the stage of synthesis of the isocyanate prepolymer to introduce graphene in the form of a suspension in tetrahydrofuran (THF) to prepare PU/graphene nanocomposites.…”
