Conductive polymer composites from polylactic acid/thermoplastic polyurethane filled with carbon black

Conductive polymer composites from polylactic acid/thermoplastic polyurethane filled with carbon black

In order to develop environmentally friendlier conductive polymer composites, polylactic acid (PLA), toughened with thermoplastics polyurethane (TPU), were filled with conductive carbon black (CB). Electrical and mechanical properties, as well as morphology of the composites were examined. Dynamic m...
