Abstract

A method was presented for the formation and metallization of cylindrical tubules from a diacetylenic lipid. This improved technique allowed for the production of metal microcylinders without the need for preliminary lipid purification and in large quantities. The physical and electrical properties of the material were investigated, and composites were used to form parallel plate capacitors. A comparison of the conductivity of the bulk material with the derived conductivity of a composite showing electromagnetic percolation showed the proportionality of the specific packing density and the critical volume fraction characteristic of percolating systems.
