Preparation and application of carbon nanotubes/conductive carbon black/ethylene-propylene-diene rubber composite

Addition of conductive fillers such as conductive carbon black(CCB)and carbon nanotubes(CNTs)could significantly improve the electrical conductivity of rubber.However,that would result in the deterioration of processing properties for rubber compound and the rapid increase in hardness of vulcanizates,which affected seriously the preparation of conductive rubber composites and thus limits the application in the field of flexible conductive rubber materials.
