Abstract
Multi-walled Carbon Nanotubes (MWCNT) and Graphene Oxide (GO) are potential nano materials for fabrication of conductive Carbon Fiber Reinforced Polymers (CFRP). The conductive CFRP in terms of electrical and thermal properties is well suited for space components to replace conventional materials like Invar, Kovar and Aluminum alloy. This paper discusses the fabrication of CFRP samples for developing space grade components using hybridization of MWCNT and rGO. Different concentration of MWCNT and rGO enhances electrical and thermal conductivity. Moreover, the characterization of the CFRP samples with this hybrid nano fillers are carried out in terms of thermal expansion and shielding effectiveness. This paper presents best suitable concentration for fulfilling the set of criteria required for enhancing the electrical and thermal properties for use in RF system.
