CONDUCTING PLASTIC MATERIAL AND METHOD OF PRODUCING SUCH MATERIAL

摘要

The present invention is related to a conducting polyaniline-based, neutralized, melt-processible plastic material with good mechanical strength properties. The plastic material according to the invention employs a sulfonated terpolymer, advantageously neutralized with zinc acetate, as the plasticizing agent between the conducting polymer and the matrix polymer. Such a plastic material is elastically rubbery, whereby its properties including impact strength are improved. A further advantage of the plastic material according to the invention is that no noxious emissions or migration are incurred during its production and processing. The invention also concerns a method of producing said material.
