The present invention relates generally to conductive polymer composites, electrically conductive adhesives, and methods of producing the same. The conductive polymer composites and electrically conductive adhesives may be used for electronic component interconnects, flip chip interconnections, electrical connections to circuit boards, jumper connections, or similar uses. The method of forming a conductive polymer composite includes mixing conductive metal flakes, functionalized conductive metal nanoparticles, and a polymer precursor and curing the polymer precursor to form a composite. In one embodiment, the conductive polymer composites may be composed of microparticles of silver flake and sintered silver nanoparticles between the silver flakes. The polymer composites have an electrical conductivity of less than 10−5 Ω·cm.
