The composite consisting of filter-supported entangled multiwall carbon nanotube networks were prepared by filtration of nanotube fluid dispersion through a non-woven flexible polystyrene membrane. The nanotubes infiltrate partly into the membrane pores and couple the membrane and the accumulated filtrate layer. The filter-support increases nanotube network mechanical integrity and eliminates the laborious process of peeling off the nanotube network from the usual micro-porous (polycarbonate, nylon) membrane filter followed by the network impregnation to increase its compactness. The composite with embedded nanotube network is shown to be a conductor whose electrical resistance is sensitive to compressive strain. To model the electrical resistance strain dependence, the statistical approach based on Weibull distribution of resistive nanotube contacts is used.
