    Abstract: The present invention provides a hybrid conductive composite made from carbon nanotubes and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(styrene-sulfonate) to reduce the surface resistivity of a transparent thermoplastic substrate. The inventive composites, which may find use in capacitive touch screen displays, require no special treatment or precautions, and are not limited by minimum or maximum component ratios. A wide variation the amounts of carbon nanotube and poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)/poly(styrene-sulfonate) allows a minimization of the adverse carbon nanotube effects on the composite transparency while producing a stable, low sheet resistance material.
