This article focuses on exploring how the electrical conductivity and densification properties of metallic samples made from aluminum (Al) powders reinforced with 0.5 wt % concentration of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) and consolidated through spark plasma sintering (SPS) process are affected by the carbon nanotubes dispersion and the Al particles morphology. Experimental characterization tests performed by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and by energy dispersive spectroscopy (EDS) show that the MWCNTs were uniformly ball-milled and dispersed in the Al surface particles, and undesirable phases were not observed in X-ray diffraction measurements. Furthermore, high densification parts and an improvement of about 40% in the electrical conductivity values were confirmed via experimental tests performed on the produced sintered samples. These results elucidate that modifying the powder morphology using the ball-milling technique to bond carbon nanotubes into the Al surface particles aids the ability to obtain highly dense parts with increasing electrical conductivity properties.

<p>The chemical functionalization of amino multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT-NH<sub>2</sub>) by selenium dioxide (SeO<sub>2</sub>) was used to produce Poly [MWCNT/Imidoselenium] composite. The prepared poly-composite was characterized by FTIR, SEM, TEM, XRD, UV, DSC and TGA. The DC electrical conductivity of poly-composite was 4.3×10<sup>-4</sup> S/cm due to the interaction between the nanotubes. </p>

Hydroxyl modified multi-walled carbon nanotubes (OH-MWCNT)/ polyurethane (PU) and graphene nanosheets (GNS)/PU composites were prepared by dispersing the OH-MWCNT and GNS at different wt % in to the PU matrix. It was found that the electrical percolation threshold of the GNS/PU composite is much higher compared to that of OH-MWCNT/PU and also the electrical conductivity of the OH-MWCNT/PU composite is higher than the GNS/PU composite in the same level of filler content. This may be due to the two composites having different electrical conduction mechanisms: The OH-MWCNT/PU composite represents a three dimensional conduction system while, the GNS/PU composite represents a two dimensional conduction system. The improvement in the electrical conductivity with the incorporation of GNS as a filler in the composite is far lower than what theoretically expected. It is also observed that the tensile strength of the OH-MWCNT/PU composite is higher compared to the GNS/PU in the same level filler content.
