Poly(acetylene) films are produced by polymerization of acetylene, if appropriate mixed with a di- and/or poly(alkyne), in the presence of an active transition metal catalyst on filaments, fibers, woven or knitted fabrics, nonwovens, laid webs, interlaced structures or nets composed of metals, glass or natural and/or synthetic fibers.

Electrically conductive complexes of polypyrroles with nitroaromatic anions are prepared by polymerizing pyrrole, an N-alkylpyrrole and/or an N-arylpyrrole by anodic oxidation in a polar solvent, in the presence of a salt of an acidic nitroaromatic compound.

Electrically conductive polypyrrole derivatives

A process for the preparation of electrically conductive heteropolyphenylenes, wherein from 0.5 to 5 per cent by weight of an activating additive is introduced, in the absence of moisture and of oxygen, into a heteropolyphenylene of the general formula ##STR1## where X is O, S, Se, SO or SO.sub.2 and Y has one of the meanings given for X or is NH, CH.sub.2, CO or C.sub.6 H.sub.4, and n is from 2 to 250. The activating additive is preferably one of the compounds AsF.sub.5, SbF.sub.5, UF.sub.6, HClO.sub.4, NO.sup.+ SbF.sub.6.sup.-, NO.sub.2.sup.+ SbF.sub.6.sup.-, NO.sup.+ PF.sub.6.sup.-, SbCl.sub.5, NO.sub.2.sup.+ PF.sub.6.sup.-, NO.sup.+ BF.sub.4.sup.-, NO.sup.+ ClO.sub.4.sup.-, (CF.sub.3).sub.2 SO.sub.4, 2,4,6-trinitrophenol, 2,4,6-trinitrophenylsulfonic acid and 2,4,6-trinitrophenylcarboxylic acid, or is sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium, calcium or barium or one of their amides, the latter being added, if appropriate, in tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyglycol, anthracene, naphthalene or 2-methylstyrene. The conductive heteropolyphenylenes may be used in the electrical industry for the production of solar cells, for conversion and fixing of radiation and for the production of electrical and magnetic switches, or may be used for the antistatic treatment of plastics.

Preparation of electrically conductive soluble heteropolyphenylenes

A process for the preparation of electrically conductive polyaromatics having conductivities greater than 10.sup.-2 S/cm, wherein from 0.5 to 15% by weight of an oxidizing Lewis acid, e.g. antimony pentafluoride or arsenic pentafluoride, or their NO.sup.+ - or NO.sub.2.sup.+ -salts, or a nitroaromatic, e.g. trinitrophenol or trinitrobenzenesulfonic acid, and/or a fluorine derivative, e.g. CF.sub.3 --COOH, or an acid, e.g. sulfuric acid, nitric acid or perchloric acid, is added to a polyaromatic, in the absence of moisture.

Preparation of electrically conductive polyaromatics

A process for the preparation of electrically conductive polyaromatics having conductivities greater than 10.sup.-2 S/cm., wherein from 0.5 to 5% by weight, based on the polyaromatics, of sodium, potassium, rubidium, cesium or their amides, preferably in tetrahydrofuran, dimethoxyglycol, anthracene, naphthalene or 2-methylstyrene, are incorporated into polyaromatics, in the absence of moisture and of oxygen. The conductive polyaromatics obtained may be used in the electrical industry for the manufacture of solar cells, for the conversion of radiation and for the manufacture of electrical and magnetic switches, and may also be used to render plastics antistatic.
