Abstract

Simple equations are expressed for tunnel conductivity, tunnel resistance and conductivity of a graphene-filled composite by the number of contacts and interphase part. More specially, the active filler amount is suggested by interphase depth, which changes the contact number. The conductivity of nanocomposite is presented by filler content, filler dimensions, tunneling length and interphase depth. The innovative model is surveyed by the experimented conductivity of real examples. Too, the impacts of numerous issues on the tunnel resistance, tunnel conductivity and conductivity of nanocomposite are discussed to validate the novel equations. The estimates agree with the experimented data and the impacts of several terms on the tunnel resistance, tunnel conductivity and conductivity of system are sensible. Thin and big nanosheets positively affect the nanocomposite’s conductivity, but thick nanosheets improve the tunnel conductivity. High conductivity is found at short tunnels, while the nanocomposite’s conductivity directly depends on the tunneling length. The dissimilar effects of these features on the tunneling properties and conductivity are described. © 2023, The Author(s).
