This document describes a polymer blend and method of preparing an electrically conductive polymer blend. The method involves selecting at least two immiscible polymeric materials, mixing them into a blend where one forms a continuous phase, and mixing an electrically conductive filler into the blend. The difference in surface tension between the continuous phase polymer and other polymers in the blend must be at least 2 mN/m. The polymer blend has applications in producing electrically conductive plastics for electronic devices and circuits.

The method comprises steps of selecting at least two polymeric materials that are substantially immiscible together, mixing said polymeric materials into a blend so that at least one of the polymeric materials forms a continuous three-dimensional phase through the entire blend, and mixing an electrically conductive filler into said blend. The difference in surface tension between the polymeric material forming the continuous three-dimensional phase and the other polymeric materials forming the blend is at least 2 mN/m.
