Popis: Hybridization of multi wall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) with other filler in polymer matrix composites (PMC) is one of the techniques for combining different properties of fillers for making more unique composites. In this work, the hybrid filler (CNTs–dolomite) are prepared via chemical vapour deposition (CVD hybrid) and the milling method (physically hybrid). The effect of different hybrid method on properties of multi wall carbon nanotubes/dolomite hybrid filled phenolic composites were studied. Phenolic/CVD hybrid composites and phenolic/physically hybrid composites with different filler loadings were prepared using hot mounting press. The prepared samples were characterized for their thermal conductivity and hardness. The thermal conductivity was measured using the Transient Plane Source (TPS) method, using a Hot-DiskTM Thermal Constant Analyzer and the hardness was measured using Rockwell micro-hardness. The results showed that at 5% filler loading, the phenolic/CVD hybrid composites were capable of increasing the thermal conductivity and micro-hardness up to 7.22% and 101.6% respectively compared to pure phenolic.
