In this report, a new permittivity model based on volume weighted average and probability has been used to explain and predict the dielectric permittivity of carbon nanotubes (CNTs)/polyimide (PI) hybrid materials. The model has been verified by a composite with 8.1 vol% fillers load. The calculative data (7.97 vol%) of percolation threshold, based on the intrinsic permittivity of fillers and matrix, fitted to the reported data (8.01 vol%) in the case of 100 Hz. A potential mechanism indicated that the permittivity of the composites is influenced by localized polarization of fillers and matrix. However, geometric connection and tunneling are dispensable to plasma resonance. Additionally, a derived formula of this model expresses that extremely high permittivity of composites can be intensively influenced by the permittivity of the matrix.
