Mm. Davila et al., ELECTRICAL AND MORPHOLOGICAL CHARACTERIZATION OF A NICKEL-POLYESTER COMPOSITE PREPARED BY SPREADING AND SPRAYING TECHNIQUES, Journal of Materials Science, 32(14), 1997, pp. 3705-3710
Nickel-Polyester samples were produced using polyester resin and metal
lic particles of nickel. A scanning electron microscopy study shows th
at the prepared surface produced from nickel particles dispersed in th
e polyester and thermally treated consists of a porous network. Nickel
-Polyester composites with resistivity values around 10(-1)-10(-3) Ohm
cm have been analysed as potential oxygen evolution electrodes in an
alkaline medium. The dependence of the electronic parameters on the mo
rphological features of the nickel-polyester samples is evident from t
he study carried out with samples prepared at different conditions.
