Abstract

An electrically conductive additive system comprising carbon nanofibers and, optionally, electrically conductive particulate material mixed in a liquid component. The carbon nanofibers can be characterized by having a diameter between about 70 to about 200 nanometers, a length between about 50 to about 100 microns, and graphitic planes having a stacked cone-type structure.

Claims (7)

1. A composition comprising:

a thermoset resin;

carbon nanofibers at least partially characterized by graphitic planes having a stacked cone-type structure; and

electrically conductive particulate material, wherein said electrically conductive particulate material is conductive carbon black.

2. The composition of claim 1 wherein the carbon nanofibers are further characterized by having a diameter between about 70 to about 200 nanometers.

3. The composition of claim 1 wherein the carbon nanofibers are further characterized by having a length between about 50 to about 100 microns.

4. The composition of claim 1 further comprising fibrous reinforcing material.
