Metric Options: CountsSelecting the 1-year or 3-year option will change the metrics count to percentiles, illustrating how an article or review compares to other articles or reviews within the selected time period in the same journal. Selecting the 1-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year. Selecting the 3-year option compares the metrics against other articles/reviews that were also published in the same calendar year plus the two years prior.
Example: if you select the 1-year option for an article published in 2019 and a metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019. If you select the 3-year option for the same article published in 2019 and the metric category shows 90%, that means that the article or review is performing better than 90% of the other articles/reviews published in that journal in 2019, 2018 and 2017.

Book Chapter Description
The electrically conductive thermoplastic polyurethane (TPU)-based nanocomposites were prepared using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNT), and they were compared with TPU-based nanocomposites consisting of multi-walled carbon nanotubes (MWCNT). SWCNT was pre-dispersed in polyol esters as a master-batch and added into the TPU-based polymer matrix by hot-melt mixing. Electrical conductivity and mechanical properties of TPU/SWCNT with different SWCNT loadings were evaluated and compared with TPU/MWCNT nanocomposites. Results show that TPU/SWCNT nanocomposites with 0.3 wt% loading weight can achieve the same electrical conductivity as TPU/MWCNT nanocomposites with 3% loading weight. In addition, the TPU/SWCNT nanocomposites exhibited higher mechanical properties (e.g., tensile strength, elongation at break, abrasion resistance) compared to the TPU/MWCNT nanocomposites. Low electrically conductive resistance can be achieved with an extremely low loading weight of SWCNT. The TPU/SWCNT nanocomposites are suitable for applications, such as robot skins, that require both good mechanical and conductive properties.
