Abstract

Nanostructured carbon black - polyisoprene composite is prepared and investigated. A giant reversible tensoresistive effect - dependence of electrical resistance vs. uniaxial tension deformation - is found. A new application of the conductive atomic force microscope for the carbon black network mapping in a nonconducting matrix is reported.
