ABSTRACT:
The present invention relates to a conductive carbon nanotube-polymer composite, comprising carbon nanotubes, and a mixture of polymers in a form of coalesced polymer particles, wherein the mixture of polymer particles in their non coalesced form is defined by the presence of at least two population of polymer particles having a size distribution which is at least bimodal.
