Electrical conductivity of polyester polymer containing carbon black

Abstract

An increase of electrical conductivity by twelve orders of magnitude in polyester polymer doped with acethylene carbon black to an amount as small as 0.2 wt% is observed. The electrical conductivity of such systems decrease linearly with temperature. These dependences can be described by a model assuming non-homogeneous dispersion of the carbon black particles which group around large insulator regions. [Russian Text Ignored].
