Formation of new electric double percolation via carbon black induced co-continuous like morphology†
Abstract
A new electric double percolation was realized via carbon black self-networking induced co-continuous like morphology (composed of disconnected PU clusters and bands) in polylactide/poly(ether)urethane (PLA/PU) blends. As a result, a simultaneous improvement in electrical conductivity and impact toughness of the blends without compromising strength and modulus has been achieved.
