摘要
In recent years, epoxy composites have been found as a great composite material in the design and fabrication of parts for industrial applications, owing to their cost-effectiveness, ease of processing, and excellent properties. However, reports have it that epoxy nanocomposites still face properties degradation on exposure to lightening strikes during performance, especially on aerospace applications. And such limitation of epoxy-reinforced composites occurs due to their poor electrical conductivity and low resistance to thermal effect. Thus, the present review study focuses on the recent advances on improving the mechanical, thermal, and electrical conductivity properties of epoxy-reinforced nanocomposites using carbon-based nanofillers. In addition, the study highlights the potential applications of epoxy nanocomposites in sensors, automobiles, electromagnetic interference shielding, and aerospace. As such, the authors concluded the review with advancement, challenges, and recommendations on the future improvement of epoxy-reinforced conductive nanofiller composites. Additionally, in the field of conductive polymer nanocomposites field of applications, the review will also open an avenue for future study.
