▎ 摘  要

Herein, a facile method has been reported to efficiently prepare debundled multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT) and few-layered graphene using a hyperbranched polyethylene (HBPE), and as hybrid fillers, their modification effects on high-density polyethylene (HDPE) are well demonstrated. Stable dispersions of debundled MWCNT and graphene in chloroform were respectively obtained by sonication using the HBPE as stabilizer, and MWCNT/graphene/HDPE ternary nanocomposites were then fabricated by solution-assisted premixing and subsequent melt mixing, at a fixed mass ratio of MWCNT/graphene of 3:1 and serially changed filler loadings. It is found that the MWCNT and graphene have good dispersibility in the composites, and as hybrid fillers, they can effectively form composite net-like structure, which makes them show better modification effects on both the electrically and thermally conductive properties of HDPE, as compared to the single MWCNT.
