Course Objectives

  • To enable the students to understand the basic concepts on conducting polymers, conduction mechanism, various methods of synthesis and characterization of conducting polymers and their applications.

UNIT I ELECTROCHEMISTRY OF CONDUCTING POLYMERS

Electrochemistry of electronically conducting polymers-source of electronic conduction in polymers – solitons, polarons and bipolarons – semiconductors and conducting polymers.

UNIT II GENERAL SYNTHESIS OF CONDUCTING POLYMERS

Synthesis of conducting polymers – chemical, electrochemical and enzymatic methods – doping – general considerations – measurement of conductivity – van der Pauw technique – factors affecting conductivity.

UNIT III CHARACTERIZATION OF CONDUCTING POLYMERS

Characterization of conducting polymers – electro analytical techniques – cyclic voltammetry, chronoamperometry and chronocoulometry, spectral methods - use of UV-vis, Raman, XRD and NMR.

UNIT IV SYNTHESIS, PROCESSABILITY AND APPLICATIONS

Synthesis, processability and applications of acetylene, aniline, pyrrole, thiophene and para – phenylene based conducting polymers.

UNIT V APPLICATIONS OF CONDUCTING POLYMERS

Conducting polymers in microelectronics – corrosion and ESD protection, EMI shielding and lithography. LED-rechargeable batteries – artificial muscles - electrochromic devices– sensor devices–conductive composites.
