Abstract
Plasticized mixtures of styrene–butadiene–styrene block copolymer (SBS) and Polyaniline (Pani) were prepared in a Haake internal mixer. Two different plasticizers were used: dioctyl phthalate (DOP) and cashew nut shell liquid (CNSL). Pani and plasticizers were characterized by FTIR and the resistive behavior of plasticized mixtures was investigated along the electrification time. It is shown that obtained experimental data are subject to deterministic dynamic fluctuations that cannot be described by single normal probability distribution functions (PDF) along the time. The PDF analysis shows that obtained PDFs must be described as sums of at least three distinct Gaussian distributions with different areas. It is also shown that the Gaussian component with larger area may provide better representation of the measured volume resistivity values.
