Abstract
Abstract The poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC) in laminated PVC + polypyrrol (PPy) films has been converted to an electrically conducting structure by photodehydrochlorination and subsequent electrochemical doping. The maximum conductivity (6 × 10 −1 S cm −1 ) of the PVC film was obtained by potentiostatic oxidation at 0.3 V vs. SCE in HCl solution. The reflection spectra of the PVC film showed a new band around 600 to 800 nm after the electrochemical doping, indicating the formation of a charge-transfer complex. The maximum conductivity of the PVC film was reached with the highest concentration of the charge transfer complex, polyene + … X − , formed between the photogenerated polyenes and dopant anions.
