...: Oronzio Manca. 28 02 2013 09 07 2013 We report and model a linear increase in the thermal conductivity ( κ ) of polymer composites incorporated with relatively low length/diameter aspect ratio multiwalled carbon nanotubes (CNTs). There was no evidence of percolation-like behavior...

... in the literature. (Notably, the stability of the nanofluid samples was not verified in these studies.) In the present study, the dispersion and stability of the nanoparticles were confirmed by using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Percolation networks were observed in the SEM image of the nanofluid...

... the nanoparticles stay dispersed in the base fluid, form large aggregates, or assume a percolating fractal configuration. The experimental data, which are strikingly analogous to those in most solid composites and liquid mixtures, provide strong evidence for the classical nature of thermal conduction in nanofluids...

... thin film transistor nanocomposite percolation In recent years, there has been growing interest in low-cost large-area manufacture of thin-film transistors (TFTs) on flexible substrates for use in applications such as displays, e -paper, e -clothing, biological and chemical sensing...
