CARBON NANOTUBE YARN ELECTRICAL RESISTANCE CURING VINYL ESTER INITIATOR VISCOSITY | |
The effect of polymerization kinetics and resin viscosity on the electrical response of a single carbon nanotube yarn (CNTY) embedded in a vinyl ester resin (VER) during polymerization was investigated. To analyze the effect of the polymerization kinetics, the concentration of initiator (methyl ethyl ketone peroxide) was varied at three levels, 0.6, 0.9, and 1.2 wt.%. Styrene monomer was added to VER, to reduce the polymer viscosity and to determine its effect on the electrical response of the CNTY upon resin wetting and infiltration. Upon wetting and wicking of the CNTY by VER, a transient decrease in the CNTY electrical resistance (ca. −8%) was observed for all initiator concentrations. For longer times, this initial decrease in electrical resistance may become a monotonic decrease (up to ca. −17%) or change its trend, depending on the initiator concentration. A higher concentration of initiator showed faster and more negative electrical resistance changes, which correlate with faster gel times and higher build-up of residual stresses. An increase in styrene monomer concentration (reduced viscosity) resulted in an upward shift of the electrical resistance to less negative values. Several mechanisms, including wetting, wicking, infiltration, electronic transfer, and shrinkage, are attributed to the complex electrical response of the CNTY upon resin wetting and infiltration. | |
