A conductive nanofiller, expanded graphite (EG), was introduced into polyvinylidene fluoride (PVDF) by direct melt blending process. The electrical conductivity and dielectric properties of resulting PVDF/EG composites were investigated in a wide range of frequencies from 102 to 108 Hz. The dielectric dispersion and conductivity of the composite system exhibited a strong frequency dependence particularly in the vicinity of percolation threshold (Φc = 6 vol%). Moreover, the dielectric permittivity tended to decrease with increasing frequency while the conductivity displayed a reverse trend. A large permittivity was found in the composite having EG content near Φc. Accordingly, percolation concept and biased random walk approach can be used to describe the carrier transport of percolating PVDF/EG system. The conductivity and permittivity of percolating PVDF/EG composites were observed to be temperature dependent.
