- Hi,
-
- I'm working with a Hercules carbon fiber AS-4W that is s
- supposed to have a resistance of 1.7 E-3 Ohms/cm (for a 12K tow).
- I've used various lengths of fiber and multiple tows and I always seem to
- get values much greater than I should, between 50 and 100 times
- greater. Does anyone else work in this area? There doesn't seem to
- be much interest in the electrical properties of conductive
- composites.
-
- Thanks,
-
