Tunable liquid sensing performance of conducting carbon nanotube–polyethylene composites with a porous segregated structure

Abstract

An electrically conductive carbon nanotube–polyethylene composite with a porous segregated structure was fabricated using a combination of hot compaction and salt-leaching. The composite exhibited high electrical conductivity (∼8.5 S m−1), good reproducibility, and a tunable liquid sensing capacity over a large range of 220–1718%.
