Effect of chain rigidity on conductivity of conjugated polymers

PDF Version Also Available for Download.

Description

There are several ways to introduce processability to conjugated polymers, and one of them is discussed here. The basic approach involves the introduction of flexible centers in a conjugated backbone with a periodicity that allows the existence of conjugated sequences characterized by an electron mobility high enough to result in electronic conduction upon oxidation or reduction. The process consists of the use of AsF/sub 5/ as a polymerization catalyst, and AsF/sub 3/ as a non-conventional medium for the reaction. The Lewis acid coupling reactions, via which the polymerization occurs, result in soluble materials. Characteristics of the materials obtained by polymerizing … continued below

Characteristics of the materials obtained by polymerizing acetylene and some aromatic compounds are discussed.
