ELECTRICALLY AND THERMALLY CONDUCTIVE ELASTIC BENDING COMPOSITE MATERIAL

摘要

The invention provides a flexible composite comprising a resilient structured conductive member extending between opposite surfaces of the composite and a polymeric coating on each side of the conductive member to define therewith the opposite surfaces. The conductive member comprises a plurality of tapered elements extending to opposite surfaces of the composite. The conductive member thereby provides a conductive pathway through the composite which is adapted to compress and return towards its original shape as a force is applied and decreased.
