Abstract

The electrical conductivity of graphene reinforced epoxy resin was measured. The conductivity was found to be dependent on the concentration of graphene. A percolation threshold was observed at a graphene concentration of 0.5 wt%. The conductivity increased sharply above the percolation threshold. The maximum conductivity achieved was 10 S/m at a graphene concentration of 5 wt%. The experimental results were compared with theoretical models.

Keywords: graphene, epoxy resin, electrical conductivity, percolation threshold, nanocomposites
