Both, carbon black and recycled short carbon fibres were used. The percolation threshold was determined. It depends on the structure of the fillers, filler content and structure of the PE-matrix. An anisotropy of the electrical conductivity was observed only in the range of the percolation threshold. A good correlation was found between mechanical properties and the specific electrical conductivity of the thermoplastic composites.en1359-835X2006913901395A. Glass fibresB. Electrical propertiesB.
