Abstract

Abstract: A highly flexible and conductive nanohybrid film based on multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWNT) was prepared using synergistic dispersion effects of nanosisal cellulose and graphene oxide (GO). The dispersion effect of MWNT was characterized using illustrative diagrams of different dispersions after centrifuge, transmission electron microscope, and Zeta potential, respectively. The results showed that 80 wt% MWNT was efficiently dispersed and formed a stable nanodispersion solution using 10 wt% cellulose nanofiber (CNF) and 10 wt% GO as dispersants. The conductivity and tensile strength of the CNF/GO/MWNT nanocomposite film were up to 1818.19 S/m and 25 MPa, respectively.
