Abstract Complex physical behavior of ethylene‐vinylacetate (EVA)/nickel composites was investigated in this article. The presence Ni EVA matrix leads to an increase surface hydrophilicity. peel strength adhesive joints EVA/nickel aluminum is sharply increased up 10 vol% Ni, followed by a subsequent decrease. are highly elastic and deformable. Young's modulus increases steeply only for concentrations 15 vol%. thermal conductivity significantly the nickel. An interesting correlation between relative permittivity observed. POLYM.
