Synthesis and study of thermal and electrical behaviour of some polyaromatic amines

Abstract

Abstract Samples of polyaromatic amines were synthesised by chemical and electrochemical methods, using different amounts of electrolytes for the purpose of doping the polymer. These polymers were found to show electrical conductivity in the range 10 −12 –10 −6 S/cm. A study of conductivity at various temperatures indicates the semiconducting behaviour of these polymers. Thermal analysis shows that these polymers have high thermal stability.
