A study on the stability of n-type conductive polymer

Abstract

Novel n-type conducting polymer, poly (p-methylpyridinium vinylene), PMePyV were synthesized by using the quaternization of poly (p-pyridyl vinylene), PPyV and several regiochemical consequences in this polymer were proposed. The electrical, optical, and electrochemical properties of n-type conductive polymer were observed. In addition, a possibility of a variety of functional applications of n-type conductive polymer was indicated.
