There are few studies that discuss the effect of the fabrication conditions and bulk thickness on the electrical conductivity of hot pressed polymer-matrix composites. For polymer-matrix composites that possess a segregated-network microstructure, the processing parameters can significantly impact the electrical properties and microstructure of the composite material. Our group has recently fabricated novel polymer-matrix nanocomposites, which possess a segregated network microstructure containing regular, polyhedral-shaped polymer matrix particles. This paper investigates the effect of processing pressure and specimen thickness on the electrical properties and microstructure of hot pressed poly(methyl methacrylate) (PMMA) containing segregated networks of indium tin oxide (ITO) nanopowders.
