A series of nanocomposite films based on aromatic poly(ether amide) (PEA) and pristine multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) of 0.1-10.0 wt% have been fabricated by solution mixing and casting. The morphological features of PEA/MWCNT nanocomposite films were characterized by using electron microscopy, FT-IR and Raman spectroscopy. The thermal stability, thermomechanical and electrical properties of the nanocomposite films were investigated with aids of TGA, DMA, electrical conductivity meter, respectively. It was revealed that the electrical conductivity of the nanocomposite films increased significantly with increasing the MWCNT content. In addition, the thermal stability and mechanical properties of PEA increased by the introduction of MWCNT. It was revealed that PEA/MWCNT nanocomposite films could be utilized for high performance antistatic, electric heating, and EMI shielding materials in advanced application areas. |
