Novel conductive polymer composites based on poly(butylene terephtalate) filled with carbon fibers
Résumé
Poly(butylene terephthalate) (cPBT) synthesized from cyclic Butylene Terephthalate oligomers (CBT) was used as a matrix for carbon fibre (CF) conducting polymer composites (CPC). DSC, rheological studies and measurements of torque of CBT/CF were performed in order to optimise the processing conditions of CPC. DC and AC measurements were carried out for these composites and have shown a low percolation threshold for cPBT/CF.
