Abstract:
The invention relates to a semiconductive polyolefin composition comprising, (A) 80 to 99.5 wt. % of an olefin polymer base resin based on the total weight of the semiconductive polyolefin composition; (B) 0.1 to 10.0 wt. % of first carbonaceous structures based on the total weight of the semiconductive polyolefin composition; (C) 0.2 to 15.0 wt. % of carbon black and/or second carbonaceous structures based on the total weight of the semiconductive polyolefin composition; and (D) optionally additives; wherein the combined amount of components (B) and (C) is at least 0.3 wt. % and not more than 15.0 wt. % based on the total weight of the semiconductive polyolefin composition; and wherein the semiconductive polyolefin composition has an electrical percolation threshold of not more than 5 wt. % of the combined amount of components (B) and (C) dispersed in the olefin polymer base resin (A), the electrical percolation threshold being defined as the critical concentration in wt. % of the components (B) and (C) in the olefin polymer base resin (A) where an exponential increase in electrical conductivity is observed; wherein the polyolefin composition has a conductivity of at least 1·10−7 S/cm determined according to Broadband Dielectric Spectroscopy for a percolation threshold of 1.0 wt. % or lower and 2-point electrical measurements for a percolation threshold of more than 1.0 wt. %; and wherein components (A) to (D) add up to 100 wt. %.
