Materials Science and Applied Physics Questions and Answers

Electrical Conductivity: Metals vs. Plastics

Why is the electrical conductivity of metals very high while that of plastics is very low?

Metals: Metallic bonding leaves valence electrons delocalised as an “electron sea” (about 1028–1029 electrons/m3). In band theory, the conduction band is partly filled or overlaps the valence band, so there is no energy gap. Electrons move freely under a small field. Conductivity is approximately 106–108 S/m.

Plastics: Atoms are held by strong covalent bonds,
