Fig. 2: Time- and temperature-dependent properties.
From: Explosive percolation yields highly-conductive polymer nanocomposites
Conductivity time series for a below-percolation-threshold composite (A 0.2 wt% GO), a near-threshold composite (B 0.5 wt%) and above-threshold composite (C 2 wt%) reduced at two different temperatures. D Arrhenius plot of the time taken for both a colour change and conductivity onset to occur, as a function of inverse absolute temperature, showing the presence of two distinct regions with their associated activation energies. E DSC traces for the pristine polymer and three composites (0.2, 0.5, and 2.0 wt% GO) show the exothermic GO reduction peak at around 200 °C. F DSC traces show the evolution of the exothermic polymer crystallisation peak with increasing GO content.
