**Electrospun nanofibers of polyacrylonitrile**, containing an iron compound, have been converted to carbon nanofibers, with iron particles on their surfaces. The iron particles catalyze the growth of carbon nanotubes with iron tips (see Figure). A mechanically strong and electrically conducting pat

## Abstract **Summary:** This study aims at developing a highly electronic conductive microporous structure from thermoplastic polymers filled with carbon black (CB) and graphite (GR). The matrix was a low viscosity poly(propylene) (PP) and the conductive additives were composed of high specific su
## Abstract Carbon nanotubes (NT) have attracted growing interest in recent years as a conducting filler in the development of conductive polymer composites. However, most of experimental results show that the conductivity of NT/polymer composites is significantly lower than expected. Can NTs be an
