Abstract
Provided is a method to form a thermoplastic composite with electrically and thermally conductive constituents. The method may include receiving a molten rod having a polymer composite core. The method may further include embedding the rod with at least one conductive wire. Embedding the rod with the at least one wire may include wrapping the at least one conductive wire around the rod and tensioning the wire thereby causing the wire to at least partially embed into the rod.
