Abstract

In recent years, the interest in the development of materials with different fillers addition has increased. Among these fillers, carbon-based materials have been increasing attention, mainly due to their ability to improve mechanical, electrical and thermal properties in final composites. Carbon nanotubes are widely used/reported. Nevertheless, its application on a large scale is difficult due to its high cost. In this context, alternative materials with high carbon content and low cost have been studied as possible substitutes, including biochar [1]. Biochar corresponds to the solid fraction resulting from the pyrolysis process and is mainly composed of carbon, oxygen and hydrogen.
