ABSTRACTHigh molecular weight polyaniline / multi-walled carbon nanotube composite films were fabricated using solution processing. Composite films with various weight percentages of multiwalled carbon nanotubes were fabricated. Physical properties of these composites were analyzed by thermogravimetric analysis, tensile testing, and scanning electron microscopy. These results indicate that the addition of multiwalled nanotubes to polyaniline significantly enhances the mechanical properties of the films. In addition, metal–semiconductor (composite) (MS) contact devices were fabricated, and it was observed that the current level in the films increased with increasing multiwalled nanotube content. Furthermore, it was observed that polyaniline containing one weight percent of carbon nanotubes appears to be the most promising composition for applications in organic electronic devices.

Poly(vinylidene fluoride)(PVDF)/Multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) composites were melt blended using internal mixer. The relationships between structures and physical properties of thin PVDF/MWNT composite films were studied. With increasing the content of MWNT, the size of spherulites in PVDF decreased. MWNT was used as a nucleating agent. The incorporation of MWNT produced a polar β-form crystal structure of PVDF. The permittivities of thin PVDF/MWNT composite films were increased with increasing the MWNT content. The percolation level in electrical conductivity occurred between 2 and 2.5 wt%. The critical conductivity saturation point for the electrical conductivity in PVDF was confirmed. Similar tendency was also observed in thermal conductivity.
