Among the various conducting polymers, poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT) has attracted considerable interest due to its excellent electrical and optical properties. PEDOT is an insoluble polymer, but the use of a water-soluble polyelectrolyte, poly(styrene sulfonic acid)(PSSA), as the charge balancing counter-ion has made it possible to yield a PEDOT:PSS aqueous composite. The PEDOT:PSS composite is one of the most promising organic-based electrode materials owing to its inherent advantages over other conducting polymers such as high transparency in the visible range, long-term stability, and water-solution processibility. In the present study, electrically conductive textile coatings have been prepared by the addition of a dispersion of poly(3,4-ethylenedioxy thiophene)-polystyrene sulfonate (PEDOT-PSS) and isopropyl alcohol to a polyurethane-based coating formulation. The formulations were applied to woven poly(ethylene) terephthalate substrates using a direct coating method. |
