Conductive Polymers

Those who recognize that our modern life style is dependent, to a large extent, on the use of organic polymers as thermal and elec­ trical insulators, may be surprised to learn that specific plastics may also be used as conductors of electricity. In addition to demon­ strating the versatility of polymers, this use as conductors will lead to developments which were not possible with other available materials of construction. This is a new field which is growing rapidly because of intensive r...
