Graphite nanoplatelets (GNPs) with different sizes were compounded with polyetherimide (PEId) by melt-blending and precoating in order to investigate their effect on the electrical and thermal conductivity of the composites. Precoating compounding successfully created a percolated GNP network with an electrical percolation threshold at 1 wt%, while melt-blended samples required concentrations over 5 wt% to achieve percolation. The precoated samples also show higher thermal conductivity than the melt-blended ones. Smaller GNP particle size results in lower thermal conductivity. An improvement of 1,600% in thermal conductivity was recorded for precoated 10 wt% GNP-15/PEId composite as compared to the neat polymer and a polynomial dependence on GNP concentration was found to predict thermal conductivity.
