Unsaturated polyester resin/Graphite nanosheet composites were prepared using in situ polymerization under AC electric field which was applied during composite curing to induce orientation of graphite nanosheets. Scanning electron microscopy (SEM) has been applied to demonstrate the orientation of graphite nanosheets As a result, the percolation threshold was decreased to 0.25 wt% due to the orientation of the graphite nanosheets.

As conductive fillers, graphite nanosheets can be induced by the AC electric field in unsaturated polyester resin and then prepared oriented unsaturated polyester resin/graphite nanosheets composite. we investigate the preparation、configuration and capability of the unsaturated resin/graphite nanosheets conductive composites and the oriented theory of the graphite nanosheets induced in the electric field. The measures and observation of scanning electron microscopy (SEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD), electric current have shown that the graphite nanosheets are oriented by electric field which were randomly dispersed in the polymer matrix at the beginning, and then oriented with their flakes along the electric field in the polyester resin.

Graphite nanosheets (GNs) prepared by sonicating expanded graphite were homogeneously dispersed in unsaturated polyester resin using sonication. The dispersion with a curing agent was then subjected to a dc electric field, followed by crosslinking, to fabricate a polymer/GN composite film. Scanning electron microscopy revealed that the GNs in the film were oriented parallel to the electric field. UV-VIS measurements indicated that the optical properties of the field-induced composite film showed significant improvement in visible light transmittance compared with those prepared without the electric field.
