| Abstract | ||||
| This work describes the preparation and characterization of Sodium Alginate (NaAlg) treated with Titanium dioxide (TiO2)-Carbon nanotube(CNT). The morphology of composites was investigated by scanning electron microscope (SEM) showing the CNT coated with NaAlg and the TiO2 dispersed in the NaAlg matrix. Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy (FTIR) was applied for characterization of NaAlg composite with TiO2/CNT, the whole alginate presented bands in the region of 948-780 cm-1. The structure characteristics and surface properties of the samples were characterized by Electrical Conductivity that was measured in the range of (42 Hz-1 MHz). The study concluded that the introduction of TiO2/CNT resulted in improvement in electrical conductivity of the NaALg matrix. | ||||
