Zusammenfassung:An electrically conductive fibrous material and a process for preparing the same from a thermally stabilized acrylic fibrous material are provided. The thermally stabilized acrylic fibrous material is first contacted with cuprous ions to produce a cuprous ion-impregnated fibrous material, and subsequently is subjected to a sulfiding agent capable of sulfiding cuprous ions, and preferably washed, to produce thermally stabilized acrylic fibrous material having covellite copper sulfide in association therewith. Also provided are electrically conductive composites and a process for preparing the same by incorporating the fibrous material prepared in accordance with the process within a substantially continuous polymeric matrix.
