Diffusion Behaviour

ABSTRACTElectrically Conductive Polymer nanocomposites have attracted lots of attention in the last years, especially for their sensitivities to external solicitations, like temperature or pressure variation. This work concerns the modelling of toluene diffusion behaviour in poly(ethylene-co-ethyl acrylate) (EEA)-carbon nanoparticles (CNP) CPC. One of the main objective of our work was to control and model the physical mechanisms involved in this type of material during sorption and desorption phases in the presence of solvent vapour. Two approaches was explore, thin layer to study quick electrical response and thick layer to look after swelling effect induces by toluene. The thick layer mass measurement was compare with our diffusion model.

ABSTRACTNew unique abilities towards solvents' vapor of electrically Conductive Polymer nanoComposites (CPCs) have made it a subject, holding the attention of research groups. The direct conversion from chemical information into an electrical signal can take advantage of existing low power microelectronics and sensing technology such as detection of toxic vapor; environmental monitoring in chemical industry and quality control in food processing, beverage and perfume industry. Conductive Polymer nanoComposite (CPC) is a heterogeneous system consisting of insulated polymer matrices and conductive nanofillers. In this paper we have investigated a new route for CNT grafting via ring opening polymerization of e-caprolactone. The influence of this treatment on chemo-electrical properties of the so-called CPC based sensor was investigated in this work.

Presents a review of the scientific literature on various methods for producing electrically conductive polymer materials and coatings. The prospects of using carbon nanotubes (CNT) to impart high electrical properties to the surface of materials are shown. The mechanism of formation of the structured surface of polymer materials with CNT is described. It is shown that the use of CNT is a promising way to impart electrically conductive and superhydrophobic properties to the surface.

Printing System

A laboratory-scale inkjet printing system was designed for printing polymeric inks with the focus on PEDOT:PSS, a transparent, electrically conductive polymer. PEDOT:PSS inks with 0 and 1 wt. % Surfynol were tested rheologically in elongational and shear flows. A process model is presented and validated for the prediction of flow boundary after the ink exits the nozzle, including drop formation. Process optimization involved establishing a process window related to the voltage waveform, substrate temperature, speed and printed line-overlap, aiming at avoiding satellite drops, “coffee cup” rings, the Rayleigh instability, “stacked printed lines,” and discontinuities in the printed lines or films.
