The focus of current thermoelectric (TE) research activities at the Partner IPF Dresden is the development of TE composites based on thermoplastic polymers with singlewalled carbon #nanotubes (SWCNT). For a TE module, both p- and n-conductive composites are favourable, whereby the production of long time stable n-conductive materials is a particular challenge. The present study showed that the addition of polyethylene glycol (PEG) during the melt-mixing of the conductive composites changed the TE behaviour from p- to n-type.
