Sulfonic acid ring-substituted polyaniline, a self-doped conducting polymer

Abstract: Sulfonic acid ring-substituted polyaniline has been synthesized and characterized by elemental analysis, FTIR, UV-vis and electron spin resonance spectroscopy. Approximately 50% of the total number of phenyl rings in the polymer are mono-substituted by -SO− 3 groups. Without external doping, the ring-sulfonated polyaniline has a conductivity of ∼0.03 S/cm; it is therefore a “self-doped” conducting polymer. The water soluble sodium salt of the ring-sulfonated polyaniline is an insulator and can be reversibly converted back to the self-doped conducting form by treatment with aqueous acid.

Emerging Transparent Electrodes Based on Thin Films of Carbon Nanotubes, Graphene, and Metallic Nanostructures

Abstract: Transparent electrodes are a necessary component in many modern devices such as touch screens, LCDs, OLEDs, and solar cells, all of which are growing in demand. Traditionally, this role has been well served by doped metal oxides, the most common of which is indium tin oxide, or ITO. Recently, advances in nano-materials research have opened the door for other transparent conductive materials, each with unique properties. These include CNTs, graphene, metal nanowires, and printable metal grids. This review will explore the materials properties of transparent conductors, covering traditional metal oxides and conductive polymers initially, but with a focus on current developments in nano-material coatings. Electronic, optical, and mechanical properties of each material will be discussed, as well as suitability for various applications.

Electrochemically Active Polymers for Rechargeable Batteries.

Abstract: Electrochemical energy storage systems (batteries) have a tremendous role in technical applications In this review the authors examine the prospects of electroactive polymers in view of the properties required for such batteries Conducting organic polymers are considered here in the light of their rugged chemical environment: organic solvents, acids, and alkalis The goal of the present article is to provide, first of all in tabular form, a survey of electroactive polymers in view of potential applications in rechargeable batteries It reviews the preparative methods and the electrochemical performance of polymers as rechargeable battery electrodes The theoretical values of specific charge of the polymers are comparable to those of metal oxide electrodes, but are not as high as those of most of the metal electrodes normally used in batteries Therefore, it is an advantage in conventional battery designs to use the conducting polymer as a positive electrode material in combination with a negative electrode such as Li, Na, Mg, Zn, MeH{sub x}, etc 504 refs
