Özet

New type of electrically conductive polymeric composites was prepared using ethylenevinylacetate (EVA) matrix filled with silver-coated wollastonite (W-Ag) fibers. The electrical, mechanical and adhesive properties of the composites are reported in this paper. The electrical percolation threshold was found about 8 vol.% and the highly electrical conductivity value (1.8 x 10(5) S m(-1)) is reached for 29 vol.% of filler fraction. The mechanical and adhesive properties of these composites were also discussed and correlated with some models. (c) 2008 Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
