The present disclosure relates to surface-modified carbon hybrid particles in agglomerated form, methods for making such surface-modified carbon hybrid particles and their use, for example as conductive additives. The surface-modified carbon hybrid particles are characterized by a high surface area and a high mesopore content. The disclosure also pertains to methods for making dispersions of such compounds in a liquid medium in the presence of a surfactant and their use as conductive coatings. Polymer compounds filled with the surface-modified carbon hybrid particles are also disclosed. A further disclosure relates to the use of surface-modified carbon hybrid particles as carbon supports.
