Abstract:The comparative assessment of the laser micro-drilling machinability of polymer matrix nanocomposites dispersed with conducting fillers of different carbon allotropes (carbon nanotube (CNT), graphite, and carbon black (CB)) to produce minimum taper and heat-affected zone (HAZ) has been first time reported in this article. The required composite specimens are synthesized via ultrasonicator-assisted compression molding method and characterized for their thermal, electrical, and mechanical properties. The central… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
