Low-density polyethylene/ethylene-propylene-diene terpolymer/carbon black blends were irradiated in air with a 6oCo y ray or an electron beam accelerator. The absorbed dose ranged from 1-400 Mrad. The influences of irradiation on positive temperature coefficient behavior of the blends were analyzed.

β¦ Synopsis
The dependence of electrical resistivities on the temperature of different polymer systems (including rubbers and plastic/rubber blends) loaded with carbon blacks (including oxidized and normal carbon blacks) were studied. We found that polymer-carbon black interactions could greatly influence the electrical resistivity and temperature relations of the polymer composites. The polymer blends filled with oxidized carbon black, or the elastomer which has polar functional groups filled with carbon black, have a very weak negative temperature coefficient (NTC) effect, which is due to the strong polymer-filler interactions.

Polyblends prove to be able to provide more possibilities for tailoring conductive polymer composites in comparison with individual polymer systems. Accordingly, ethylene-vinyl acetate-low-density polyethylene (EVA-LDPE) filled with carbon black (CB) was prepared in this study as a candidate for pos
