This work developed an electrically conductive thermosetting resin composite that transitioned from a liquid to solid without using solvents in response to an increase in temperature. This material has applications as a matrix for carbon fiber reinforced plastics. The composite comprised polyaniline (PANI) together with dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) as a liquid dopant in addition to a radical polymerization system made of triethylene glycol dimethacrylate with a peroxide initiator. In this system, micron-sized non-conductive PANI particles combined with DBSA were dispersed in the form of conductive nano-sized particles or on the molecular level after doping induced by a temperature increase. The thermal doping temperature was successfully lowered by decreasing the PANI particle size via bead milling. Selection of an appropriate peroxide initiator also allowed the radical polymerization temperature to be adjusted such that doping occurred prior to solidification. Optimization of the thermal doping temperature and the increased radical polymerization temperature provided the material with a high electrical conductivity of 1.45 S/cm.
