High-density polyethylene composite films filled with various contents of carbon fiber (CF) were manufactured by melt mixing. The electrical and self-heating properties of the composite films were investigated. The composite films containing 10wt% CF were exposed to γ-ray irradiation. The structural, morphological, and self-heating properties of the irradiated composite films were examined. The results indicated that the surface temperature (Ts) of the composite films was strongly dependent on the applied voltage and filler content. The Ts of the irradiated composite films was higher than that of the non-irradiated films, which contributed to the lower thermal expansion and the higher degree of crystallization of the irradiated composite films. In addition, the mechanical properties of the irradiated composite films were significantly improved. Using a rechargeable battery as the applied voltage source to evaluate the self-heating property of the irradiated composite films, a heating temperature of 54.2°C was achieved, which lasted for 6h.
