Electrical conductivity and physicomechanical properties of nickel-filled oligomer-oligomer composites

The electrical conductivity of cold-cured nickel-filled composites based on binary oligomer-oligomer binders was studied as influenced by the content of the filler. The experimental conductivity parameters of composites were compared with those calculated by the percolation theory taking into accoun t the interfacial characteristics at the polymeric binder-filler boundary. The compression strength and the impact resilience of the filled composites were determined and the possibility of preparing shock-resistant conductin g composite materials was shown.
