Abstract :
Proper control of the morphological and electrical properties of graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) by means of the optimal setting of the process parameters represents a crucial issue in order to obtain nanocomposites with tailored properties. In this paper we investigate the effects of some key-parameters on the electrical properties of GNPs thick films, and we discuss the correlation with the morphological features that can be observed from SEM and AFM imaging.
