Carbon nanotube–polymer composites: Chemistry, processing, mechanical and electrical properties (2010, background): “Nanotube-filled polymers could potentially, among the others, be used for transparent conductive coatings, electrostatic dissipation, electrostatic painting and electromagnetic interference shielding applications [16,203,204,379].”
Multifunctional properties of high volume fraction aligned carbon nanotube polymer composites with controlled morphology (2009, result): “Many polymers have been investigated for percolation threshold and conductivity with randomly-oriented CNTs and the results reviewed by several authors [12,23,49].”
Fabrication and multifunctional properties of a hybrid laminate with aligned carbon nanotubes grown In Situ (2008, background): “Such an improvement is expected, as plastics realize significantly enhanced conductivity at low loadings of unoriented CNTs [30–32].”
