The capacity of native nonwoven textile has been shown to decrease with the temperature according to the Arrhenius law. The activation energy of the temperature dependence of the capacity has been estimated to be 0.09 eV. It has been demonstrated that regardless of the temperature, the frequency dependence of the resistance of the nonwoven textile can be described by two exponential functions. In the presence of bound biochar and multi-walled carbon nanotubes in the nonwoven textile, the conductivity current was 4 orders of magnitude greater than the bias current and increased with the temperature according to the Arrhenius law. The activation energy of the temperature dependence of the inverse resistance (an analogue of the conductivity for homogeneous samples with the same dimensions) has been estimated to be 0.19 eV for the samples with multi-walled carbon nanotubes and 0.62 eV for the samples with bound biochar.
