Unification and DC Conductivity of PDMS/NiNPs Nanocomposite
Abstract: The DC conductivity of nickel nanoparticles–polydimethylsiloxane (NiNPs–PDMS) composite materials has attracted considerable attention due to their promising applications in flexible electronics, sensors, and energy storage devices. The electrical performance of these composites is largely governed by the formation of conductive networks within the insulating polymer matrix. Incorporating nickel nanoparticles into PDMS introduces conductive pathways that significantly enhance DC conductivity once a critical percolation threshold is reached.Several key factors influence the …

Influence of Infill Density on Structural Performance of FDM-Processed PET-G Polymer: Experimental Validation through Quadcopter Flight Testing
Abstract: Polyethylene terephthalate glycol-modified (PET-G) is an amorphous thermoplastic copolymer increasingly adopted in structural applications through fused deposition modeling (FDM). However, the correlation between FDM processing parameters, especially infill density, and mechanical performance of PET-G parts remains inadequately characterized under real-life loading conditions. This study investigates how infill density (10% and 30%, grid pattern) influences the structural integrity of FDM-processed PET-G components, validated experimentally through quadcopter airframe fabrication and flight testing. …

CMC/SWCNT Nanocomposites for Sustainable Smart Metering Sensors: Percolation-Driven Structure–Property Optimization, Experimental Validation, and Literature Benchmarking
Abstract: Biodegradable sensing materials are needed for sustainable smart electricity metering, yet cellulose/single-walled carbon nanotube (SWCNT) systems lack a unified percolation and structure–property description. This study develops carboxymethyl cellulose (CMC)/SWCNT nanocomposite films by solution casting, with SWCNT loadings of 0.0–5.0 wt%, and evaluates their electrical, mechanical, thermal, sensing, and biodegradation behavior. Percolation analysis of the insulator-to-conductor transition gave a critical threshold (φc) of 0.9 ± 0.1 wt% and a critical exponent …
