  1. Eng8450 + MWNT Sample annealed 15 minutes in the press (140 C) Around 30 minutes between put the sample in the equipment and to start the experiment DC decrease with low amount of CNT!!!!! DC region Dielectric region

  2. How we can understand this “rare” behavior? Symmetric Hopping Model Based on the study of the displacement of a charge carrier from one position to another close by The nearest-neighbor jump rate (frequency) is: It is possible to show that the transition from DC to AC is determined by the smallest jump rate (c) , and the transition will be given by: From this model is showed that: So, it is possible to think that the presence of nanotubes increase the activation energy for the jump-rate of charge carriers or decrease its diffusion processes. At higher amount the last is compensated by the percolation process.

  3. Another approach based on the same arguments define the probability for a electron (“hole”) transition from state “a” to “b”, as: ’s are the reorganization energy It is showed that the response of the system to an alternating field is: The major contribution to the conductivity comes from polymer pair elements satisfying the last assumption!!! The response at very low frequencies involve pair states with very low transition rates. As a consequence the rare transitions from pair states into new states become more significant. Again, the presence of nanotubes could change the dynamic of charge carriers, decreasing the conductivity

  4. Another theory is based on the equivalent circuit concept: Any solid with spatially varying free charge conductivity and uniform charge dielectric constant At high frequencies the conductive regions are important and at low frequencies the isolated areas limit the charge carrier motion. Under AC conditions, it is defined: Conductance contribution Resistor contribution

  5. Eng8450 + MWNT ’ is related with the current through the resistors Below the percolation point, the high frequency area is influenced by the CNT (conductive) At low frequency, the isolated-region (bulk polymer) make the greater contributions ’’ is related with the current through the capacitors The presence of CNT does not affect the conductance of the sample below the percolation point

  6. Eng8450 + SWNT Same behavior!!! CNTs affect the resistor contribution of the composite, and at low frequencies changes in the dynamicof the polymers due to CNT decrease their conductivity

  7. The effect of the dynamic of the polymer on the conductivity is confirmed by the relaxation process observed in some composites Eng + 1.0 SWNT 3 hrs annealing 140 C Eng + 0.05 SWNT 3 hrs annealing 140 C

  15. Eng8450 + MWNT Effect of the strain on the composite dynamic 3% MWNT The shear-strain disrupt the conductivity but only in the beginning, after that the system relax independent of the strain!!!! At this condition the kinetic of the relaxation is modified by the external forces The location of this peak is shear-strain dependent!!!

  16. Eng8450 + MWNT Effect of the strain on the composite dynamic 6% MWNT It is clear that the drop in conductivity depends of the shear-strain, and again the system is able to relax independent of the shear-strain!!!!
