Information on the percolation threshold

[robbo2004]

Can anyone help me find information on the percolation threshold, i.e for when particle concentration is increased to a point when electrical pathways are created and resistance decreases by many orders, for metals loaded polymers.

Cheers

:rofl: :tongue2: :yuck: :zzz: :tongue2:

Hi.
I can introduce you a useful book:
Physics and Geometry of Disorder. by A. Efros.
U can find very useful information about percolation theory.

Good Luck.

The percolation threshold refers to the point at which a material transitions from being an insulator to a conductor due to the formation of continuous pathways for the flow of electricity. In the case of metals loaded polymers, this can occur when the concentration of metal particles reaches a critical point, allowing for the formation of interconnected pathways that reduce the resistance of the material.

To find more information on the percolation threshold and its effects on metals loaded polymers, you can start by researching academic journals and publications in materials science and engineering. Some possible keywords to use in your search could include "percolation threshold," "metal-polymer composites," "electrical conductivity," and "particle concentration." Additionally, you may want to reach out to experts in the field or attend conferences or seminars focused on materials science to learn more about this topic. Best of luck in your research!
