Abstract

The intrinsic semiconductive nature of furnace-type carbon blacks [1] has re- sulted in their use as additives which render normally resistive polymers elec- trically conductive. Various grades of conductive carbon black are produced to provide optimum cost/performance balances in a wide range of conductive applications.
