Abstract

Mono-dispersed poly(styrene-co-glycidyl methacrylate) particles containing epoxy groups were prepared by soap-free emulsion polymerization. The epoxy groups were reacted with an alpha-omega diamine e.g. ethylene glycol bis(3-aminopropyl)ether, and the surface amino groups were condensed with the terminal -CHO groups of polythiophenes. These rod-like thiophenes ((P3HT(1)-CHO with Mw = 8010, Mn = 6883, and P3HT(2)-CHO with Mw=18007, Mn=14050) had been synthesized according to the reported literature. The loading capacity (LC) of polythiophene to the polymer particles was calculated from elemental analysis, and was 2.6–3.6 µmol/g. In addition P3HT(2)-D particles was prepared using particles that were obtained from photo polymerization of 4-aminostyrene. The particles were partially oxidized by iodine-doping and the P3HT-functionalized particles show conductivities of 6.52×10−9 to 1.07×10−7 S/cm at room temperature.
