18. New trend and joint ventures
Production of nanocomposite of Epoxy/Clay/Carbon Nanotubes
CINVESTAV-Universidade do Estado de Santa Catarina (UDESC)-ITESM
Electrically conductive polymer composites made with
carbon nanotubes are of growing interest for a variety of
applications such as: electrostatic dissipation,
photovoltaic devices, and electromagnetic Interference
(EMI) shielding.

19. - Conductive polymer composites require a three
dimensional network to impart electrical
conductivity
Clay was introduced into single-walled carbon nanotube/epoxy
composites to improve nanotube dispersion without harming
electrical conductivity or mechanical performance
- The montmorillonite clays, they have a layer based
morphology,which spaces between such layers could be
filled with material like water, gypsum, sand, other soil
groups, lime, and organic additives or CARBON NANOTUBES to
avoid the volumetric changes.
