Combined electrical and rheological properties of shear induced multiwall carbon nanotube agglomerates in epoxy suspensions

► Evaluation of rheological and electrical properties of semi-dilute CNT/epoxy suspensions. ► Two types of industrially available CNTs (Nanocyl 3150 and 7000) were used. ► Suspensions are produced by different dispersion techniques (milling and sonication). ► Viscosity and time stability are strongly affected by the initial dispersion quality. ► Raw material structure is an important aspect for the choice of mixing method.
