Abstract

Conductive polymer/graphene nanocomposites have a very wide application potential base on properties such as: light weight, chemical stability, easy for fabricating, easy for functional controlling of the material. In this study, the polyethylene/graphene nanocomposite and its porous form were fabricated and the conductive properties were investigated. We have determined the effect of graphene content on the electrical conductivity of the material and the porosity of the polyethylene/graphene nanocomposite. The results show that the graphene content and the pore morphology are important factors affecting the electrical conductivity of the material.
