CATIONIC COMPOSITIONS OF ELECTRICALLY CONDUCTING POLYMERS DOPED WITH FULLY-FLUORINATED ACID POLYMERS

摘要

There is provided an electrically conductive polymer composition. The composition contains an electrically conductive polymer and a fully-fluorinated acid polymer having acidic anion groups. A first portion of the acidic anion groups are complexed with the electrically conductive polymer. A second portion of the acidic anion groups are in the form of a salt with cations, which can be inorganic cations, organic cations, or combinations thereof. The cation concentration is in the range of 5 x 10⁵ to 0.2 mole cation per gram solids, where the solids are primarily the total of the electrically conductive polymer plus the fully-fluorinated acid polymer.
