Abstract
In this study, the percolation inception, actual filler amount, and concentration of nets are expressed using the filler size and agglomeration, interphase depth, and tunneling size. A modified form of the power-law model is recommended for the conductivity of graphene–polymer products using the mentioned characteristics. The modified model is used to plot and evaluate the conductivity at dissimilar ranges of factors. In addition, the prediction results of the model are compared with the experimented values of several samples. A low percolation inception and high-volume portion of nets that improve the conductivity of nanoparticles are achieved at a low agglomeration extent, thick interphase, large aspect ratio of the nanosheets, and large tunnels. The developed equation for percolation inception accurately predicts the results assuming tunneling and interphase parts. The innovative model predicts the conductivity for the samples, demonstrating good agreement with the experimented values. This model is appropriate to improve breast cancer biosensors, because conductivity plays a key role in sensing.
