Abstract
Multifunctional nanocomposite fibers with electrical conductivities in excess of 1.0 × 104 S cm-1 were synthesized via the incorporation of a connected, silver metal network in rigid-rod poly(p-phenylene benzobisthiazole) during fiber processing. Silver metal is templated in situ using the microfibular network of the acid-swollen fiber (1). The interpenetrating metal−polymer network (2) provided mechanically robust conductivity as well as mechanical performance exceeding pure metal fibers.
