These qualities make rubber ideal for use in tires, seals, gaskets, footwear, and various other products. One common belief about rubber is that it acts as an insulator, blocking the flow of electricity. This perception stems from its prevalent use in insulating materials, such as electrical gloves and protective covers for electrical wires.

Since long tubes can successfully bridge the gaps between different "patches" within the film, active percolating electrical pathways are therefore maintained. In comparison, gaps generated upon stretching the long m-DWCNT STCFs could not be bridged due to the short length of the sonicated tubes, consequently resulting in the fragmentation of electrical …
