TLDR
In this article, the authors describe the preparation of colloidal dispersions of polypyrrole in aqueous media via a dispersion polymerization route, where particle aggregation is prevented by a steric stabilization mechanism due to the adsorption of a tailor-made poly(2-vinyl pyridine-co-butyl methacrylate) (P2VP-BM) random copolymer onto the sub-micrometre poly pyrrole nuclei.About:

Preparation and characterisation of novel polypyrrole–silica colloidal nanocomposites
Shuichi Maeda,Steven P. Armes +1 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors describe the preparation and characterisation of colloidal dispersions of polypyrrole-silica nanocomposite particles, and they find that both the particle size and the chemical composition depend markedly on the type of chemical oxidant selected for the in situ polymerisation of the pyrrole monomer.

Highly conducting, soluble, and environmentally-stable poly(3-alkylthiophenes)
TL;DR: In this article, homopolymers and copolymers of 3-alkylthiophenes incorporating alkyl groups equal to or greater than butyl in size can be handled in solution and form highly conducting, environmentally stable compositions on doping.
