<p>PURPOSE:To obtain the subject formed article having excellent durability and stability by absorbing an oxidizing agent into a formed fiber article having low orientation and a birefringence smaller than the specific level, drawing the article to form a highly oriented article, absorbing a monomer of an electrically conductive polymer into the oriented article and polymerizing the monomer to form an electrically conductive polymer. CONSTITUTION:An oxidizing agent (e.g., ferric chloride or bichromate) is absorbed in a low-orientation formed article of a melt-formed fiber composed of a polyester or polyamide and having a P value (defined by the formula) of <=0.35. The article is drawn to form a highly oriented article, which is made to contact with a monomer (e.g., vapor of a monomer) capable of forming an electrically conductive polymer by oxidative polymerization (e.g., pyrrole or thiophene). The monomer absorbed in the article is polymerized to form an electrically conductive polymer in the formed article and obtain the objective formed article of an electrically conductive polymer. The process is used widely for the production of an electrically conductive fiber, film, sheet, etc.</p> |
