Beskrivning

Electrical Conductivity in Polymer-Based Composites: Experiments, Modelling and Applications offers detailed information on all aspects of conductive composites. These composites offer many benefits in comparison to traditional conductive materials, and have a broad range of applications, including electronic packaging, capacitors, thermistors, fuel cell devices, dielectrics, piezoelectric functions and ferroelectric memories. Sections cover the theory of electrical conductivity and the different categories of conductive composites, describing percolation threshold, tunneling effect and other phenomena in the field. Subsequent chapters present thorough coverage of the key phases in the development and use of conductive composites, including manufacturing methods, external parameters, applications, modelling and testing methods.
This is an essential source of information for materials scientists and engineers working in the fields of polymer technology, processing and engineering, enabling them to improve manufacture and testing methods, and to benefit fully from applications. The book also provides industrial and academic researchers with a comprehensive and up-to-date understanding of conductive composites and related issues.

Explains the methods used in the manufacture and testing of conductive composites, and in the modeling of electrical conductivity
Contains specialized information on the full range of applications for conductive composites, including conductive adhesives or pastes
Brings scientists, engineers and researchers up-to-date with the latest advances in the field

Mer om författaren

Reza Taherian, Associate Professor and Head of the Polymer Research Laboratory, Faculty of Chemical and Materials Engineering, Shahrood University of Technology, Iran. He received his PhD in Materials Engineering from Shiraz University in 2011. His research interests and related publication works center on carbon-polymer composites, with investigations of their porosity, conductivity, and mechanical and thermal properties. For Elsevier, he has previously authored Electrical Conductivity in Polymer-Based Composites (2018). He has commercialized products through his company in the field of electrically and thermally conductive adhesives, and is actively involved in manufacturing and consulting with various companies on the production of composites reinforced with carbon and glass fibers for applications such as PEM fuel cells, aircraft bodies, and similar technologies. Prof. Dr. Ayesha Kausar is affiliated with the National Centre for Physics, Islamabad, Pakistan. Her current research interests include the design, fabrication, characterization, and exploration of structure-property relationships and potential applications of nanocomposites, polymeric composites/nanocomposites, nanoparticles/polymeric nanoparticles, quantum dots, nanocarbons (such as graphene, carbon nanotubes, nanodiamonds, fullerenes), inorganic/hybrid materials, nanofibers, and nano-foam architectures. Dr. Kausar has made extensive contributions to the fields of nanomaterials and materials science, with numerous scientific publications in international peer-reviewed journals. She has authored multiple monographs on topics ranging from carbon nano-onions and graphene quantum dots to polymer-based nanocomposites and conducting polymer nanocomposites. Additionally, she has contributed chapters to a large number of international books and encyclopedias. Her work has been recognized in recent years by inclusion in the world’s top 2% of scientists in materials science and nanotechnology, according to surveys conducted by Stanford University.
