Definition of Conductive Material
The European IEC 61340-5-1 standard:
> 1 x 10 2ohms and < 1 x 10 5ohms.
The US standard ANSI/ESD S20.20:
< 1 x 10 4ohms.
The conductivity is measured in Surface Resistance & Resistivity. An electrostatic conductive material will allocate the charge evenly on the surface of the material.

Definition of Dissipative Material
The European IEC 61340-5-1 standard:
>1 x 10 5 ohms and < 1 x 10 11ohms.
The US standard ANSI/ESD S20.20:
> 1 x 10 4ohms and < 1 x 10 11ohms.
The dissipative property is measured in Surface Resistance & Resistivity. An electrostatic dissipative material will ground electrostatic charges in predictable, controlled manner.
