Mechanical and electrical properties of high performance MWCNT/polycarbonate composites prepared by an industrial viable twin screw extruder with back flow channel

High performance multiwall carbon nanotube (MWCNT) reinforced polycarbonate (PC) composites were prepared using an industrially viable fast dispersion process by a micro twin screw extruder with back flow channel and their mechanical and electrical properties were investigated for EMI shielding applications. A uniformly dispersed MWCNT/PC composite system was observed through SEM and TEM investigations. Incorporation of a small amount of MWCNT...
