Theoretical and computational studies of carbon nanotube composites and suspensions: Electrical and thermal conductivity
Abstract
Monte Carlo simulations have been performed, aimed at finding a critical fractional volume (CFV) associated with the onset of percolation for randomly oriented nanotubes (or, indeed, any conductive particles with large aspect ratios) that are randomly dispersed in a low thermo- or electroconductive medium. The nanotubes were treated as capped interpenetrating conductive cylinders (``sticks'') with high (up to 2000) aspect ratio $a$. It has been found that for these aspect ratios the CFV is inversely proportional to $a$ resulting in surprisingly low filler volume loadings, of the order of 0.01%, required to achieve percolation in such systems. By studying fluctuations of the CFV and the density of the percolation clusters, various critical indices of the percolation theory have been calculated including the critical index of conductivity, $t$. For three-dimensional systems it has been found that $t$ decreases substantially with an increase in the aspect ratio. The calculated thermal and electrical conductivity of the nanotube suspensions and composites as functions of the nanotube loading is in good agreement with recent experimental data.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
