The invention pertains to the use of porous, chemically interconnected, isotropic carbon-nanofibre-comprising carbon networks in an anti-static, electrostatic dissipative or conductive layer with a thickness of less than 1000 ?m. It has been found that said carbon-nanofibre-comprising carbon networks can beneficially be used in an anti-static or an electrostatic dissipative layer where the surface or the volume resistivity needs to be carefully controlled. Also it has been found that the viscosity of a composite responds weakly to said carbon networks which allows to draw high quality layers.
