Abstract
This paper presents the results of experimental determination of the electrical resistivity of an insulating polymer composition (Teflon film and high-vacuum leak sealant) under stepwise shock compression at pressures up to 150 GPa. The data obtained can be used in experiments to measure the electrical conductivity of materials in this range of shock pressures.
