Conductivity in Modified Polyethylene Films
We have studied the influence of modificators (inhibitors of corrosion and plasticizers) on the electrical conductivity of polyethylene films. A model of electrical conductivity provided the formation of several tunnel junctions characterized by own percolation parameters is proposed. The redistribution of carriers over channels will always take place in modified polymer materials because of the different con centration and temperature dependences of transport parameters of separate percolated pathways.
