Conductive liquid silicone rubber-based composites were prepared through incorporation of fumed silica (FSiO2) and polydimethylsiloxanes (PDMS) modified MWCNTs (P-MWCNTs), and their mechanical and electrical properties were investigated. It is shown that the introduction of P-MWCNTs with P-MWCNTs/FS...
