TLDR
When silvery films of the semiconducting polymer, trans polyacetylene, (CH)x, are exposed to chlorine, bromine, or iodine vapour, uptake of halogen occurs, and the conductivity increases markedly (over seven orders of magnitude in the case of iodine) to give silvery or silvery-black films, some of which have a remarkably high conductivity at room temperature.Abstract:

Chemical synthesis and characterization of poly(aniline‐co‐ethyl 3‐aminobenzoate) copolymers
TL;DR: In this paper, the physicochemical properties of poly(aniline-co-3-aminobenzoic acid) (3ABAPani) copolymers were compared to those of poly (anilinesco-poly 3-amina-benzoic acids) (ABAPANIS) copylmers.
Journal ArticleDOI
Synthesis and optical properties of all-trans-oligodiacetylenes.
TL;DR: The observed linearity of the rotational correlation time with the oligomer length implies that the ODA chains in solution lack significant geometrical changes and imply that the ODAs in solution are fully stretched molecular rods of up to 4 nm in length.

Fabrication of unagglomerated polypyrrole nanospheres with controlled sizes from a surfactant-free emulsion system.
TL;DR: A very simple, template-free, and environmentally friendly one-step chemical synthesis route to fabricate unagglomerated polypyrrole (PPy) nanospheres using the classical colloidal and microemulsion theory.
