Abstract

The Poly [MWCNT/ester] composites were synthesized by solution blending method from reacted MWCNT-COOH with Hydroquinone (HQ), Catechol (CA) and Ethylene glycol (EG).The obtained poly-composites were characterized by FT-IR, UV-Vis, XRD, TEM, SEM, TGA, DSC and DC electrical conductivity. The formation of Poly[MWCNT/ester] composites  was confirmed. The DC electrical conductivity of poly-composites was in the range 10-6-10-4 S/cm due to the interaction between the nanotubes.
