We investigate the conductivity of two-dimensional charge carriers with the non-parabolic dispersion kN with N being an arbitrary natural number assuming the delta-shaped scattering potential as a major source of disorder. We employ the exact solution of the Lippmann-Schwinger equation to derive an analytical Boltzmann conductivity formula valid for an arbitrary scattering potential strength. We proceed further with a numerical study based on the finite size Kubo formula which assesses the applicability range of our analytical model. We find that for any N>1, the conductivity demonstrates a linear dependence on the carrier concentration in the limit of a strong scattering potential strength. This finding agrees with the conductivity measurements performed recently on chirally stacked multilayer graphene [1] where the lowest two bands are non-parabolic and the adsorbed hydrocarbons might act as strong short-range scatterers.
