Short Review on Conductive Polymer Composites as Functional Materials

Abstract:

Conductive polymer composites start to gain its attention towards many industries. Widely, it is used in producing electrical components such as microchips and semiconductor electronics. Most of the highly conductive polymer composites are used to produce solar panels, which convert thermal energy into electrical energy to generate electricity. It can also diffuse heat faster to avoid overheating of components that can cause degradation of the composites in the component. Thus, this short review describes the various effects that affect the thermal conductivity of natural fiber reinforced polymer matrix composites with additions of metallic filler. The outcome of this short review helps identify the important keys that influence the conductive polymer composites as functional materials.
