Solution processible poly(aniline) via doping with diesters of sulfosuccinic acid

We demonstrate that similarly as in the case of poly(pyrrole), diesters of sulfosuccinic acid containing alkyl or alkoxy substituents can serve as dopants inducing solution processibility of poly(aniline) (PANI). Free-standing films of PANI doped with sulfosuccinates, cast from 2,2′-dichloroacetic a...

Description
Summary:We demonstrate that similarly as in the case of poly(pyrrole), diesters of sulfosuccinic acid containing alkyl or alkoxy substituents can serve as dopants inducing solution processibility of poly(aniline) (PANI). Free-standing films of PANI doped with sulfosuccinates, cast from 2,2′-dichloroacetic acid, show excellent thermal stability and electrical conductivity exceeding 100 S cm −1 which in addition is metallic in character down to 230 K.
