Abstract
This chapter is intended to give an overview of electrical conductivity and dielectric properties of chloroprene rubber (CR) composites with reference to their application in the field of electronics. Influence of different types of filler on the dielectric properties of the CR composites, in a wide frequency range and varying temperature condition, is thoroughly discussed. Type, concentration, and state of dispersion of fillers as well as the polar nature of CR are noticed to play a significant role in governing the electrical conductivity of CR composites. Electrical conductivity studies of carbon black (CB) and carbon fiber-based CR composites are discussed in terms of filler concentration, filler dispersion, and processing techniques. The role of ionic liquid-modified multi-walled carbon nanotube (MWCNT) in improving the electrical conductivity of CR composites is emphatically reviewed. The effects of different types of aging on the electrical properties of CR composites are also focused in this chapter. The CR composites discussed herewith could potentially be used in the field of electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding, microwave absorbance, and conductive adhesive.
