Without fillers, rubber types such as silicone rubber exhibit poor mechanical, thermal, and
electrical properties. Carbon black (CB) is traditionally used as a filler in the rubber matrix to …

Graphene, a sp 2 hybridized-carbon allotrope attracts great attention due to its extraordinary
properties. The graphene is not only used in material engineering applications but also …

Stretchable rubber nanocomposites have been investigated for detection in piezoresistive
strain sensors. Tensile toughness must be improved while maintaining stretchability to …

Conductive filler/polymer composites were widely used in dielectric devices, but high
dielectric constant was accompanied by high loss tangent. Incorporating highly conductive …

because of the numerous configurations available for portable and small power devices …

A natural rubber (NR) filled with hybrid filler of carbon nanotube (CNT) and cellulose
nanofiller (CNF) was prepared by masterbatch latex mixing method. The proportion of CNT …

Materials that exhibit highly nonlinear behaviour are intricate to study. This is due to their
physical properties, as they possess a very large deformation. Silicone rubber is among the …

Bolt joint is one of the most commonly used methods for fiber‐reinforced polymers (FRP)
structures whose mechanical properties are quite sensitive to both the stacking sequence …

The pad dry cure method was used to coat linen fibers with a smart nanocomposite that has
photoluminescence, electrical conductivity, flame resistance, and hydrophobic properties …
