Popis: | For manufacturing thermally stable electric heating composite films, a sulfonated poly(1,3,4-oxadiazole) (sPOD) was synthesized and it was composited with pristine MWCNT of 0.1–10.0 wt% by an ultrasonicated solution mixing and casting. SEM images revealed that the pristine MWCNTs were dispersed well in the composite matrix via π–π interaction between the MWCNTs and the aromatic rings of sPOD backbone. The electrical resistivity of the composite films decreased considerably from ∼109 Ω cm to ∼100 Ω cm with the increment of the MWCNT content by forming a percolation threshold at ∼0.026 wt%. The composite films with 5.0–10.0 wt% MWCNT contents, which had sufficiently low electrical resistivity of ∼103–100 Ω cm, exhibited excellent electric heating performance by attaining high maximum temperatures as well as electric energy efficiency. Since the dominant thermal decomposition of the composite films took place at ∼500 °C, sPOD/MWCNT composite films with low electrical resistivity could be used for high performance electric heating materials for advanced applications. |
