Thermoelectric Performance of Mechanically Mixed Bi(x)Sb(2-x)Te(3)—ABS Composites
In the current study, polymer-based composites, consisting of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Bismuth Antimony Telluride (Bi(x)Sb(2−x)Te(3)), were produced using mechanical mixing and hot pressing. These composites were investigated regarding their electrical resistivity and Seebeck coeffi...

description | In the current study, polymer-based composites, consisting of Acrylonitrile Butadiene Styrene (ABS) and Bismuth Antimony Telluride (Bi(x)Sb(2−x)Te(3)), were produced using mechanical mixing and hot pressing. These composites were investigated regarding their electrical resistivity and Seebeck coefficient, with respect to Bi doping and Bi(x)Sb(2-x)Te(3) loading into the composite. Experimental results showed that their thermoelectric performance is comparable—or even superior, in some cases—to reported thermoelectric polymer composites that have been produced using other complex techniques. Consequently, mechanically mixed polymer-based thermoelectric materials could be an efficient method for low-cost and large-scale production of polymer composites for potential thermoelectric applications. |
