Dielectric properties of graphite nanocomposites

Polymer nanocomposites are an emerging class of multifunctional materials that have not been optimized for their functional potential. In this study, the dielectric properties of graphite polymer nanocomposites were evaluated. The objective was to develop for composite applications, an alternative cost-effective nanoscale carbon material with properties comparable to those of carbon nanotubes. J. VINYL. ADDIT.
