Comparison of Piezo Resistive Property of Graphene based Polymer Films and Carbon Nanotube based Polymer Films to Optimize the Conductivity
Abstract
Aim: The piezo resistive property of Graphene PVDF films and Carbon nanotube PVDF films is
analyzed and the possibility of replacing solid state resistor (10 ohm) in electronic circuits is
explored. Materials and Methods: Embedded hardware interface and Wheatstone bridge circuit is
used to analyze the electrical conductivity of Graphene PVDF films (n=10) and Carbon nanotube
PVDF films (n=10) of length 2.6 cm and width 1.1 cm. Results: Graphene PVDF films have
significantly higher Conductivity (0.082 s/m) (p<0.05) than Carbon nanotube PVDF films (0.0108
s/m). Conclusion: Within the limits of this study Graphene PVDF films offer best Conductivity and
can be used as a replacement for solid state resistors.
