Preparation polymeric composites polypyrrole with poly vinyl chloride and study of mechanical, electrical conductivity properties

Abstract EN

A preparation of conductive polypyrrole / poly (vinyl Chloride) (PPy / PVC) composites, conducting PPy phase in a PVC matrix has been developed.

This process involves encapsulating PVC particles with a thin layer of PPy, and subsequently compacting this PPy- encapsulated PVC powder by compression molding.

The electrical conductivity of the pre-localized PPy / PVC composites was determined.

The tensile properties, dynamic mechanical behavior, and hardness of PPy / PVC Composites were studied as a function of PPy content.

When 0.5 wt % of PPy / PVC Composites , this value is much lower than those of the conventional conductive composite materials containing a random distribution of PPy fillers.

The samples with a PPy content of 2 wt % or above have high conductivity and still preserve reasonable mechanical properties.
