Electrically conductive polymer blends of an acetylene polymer and an elastomer having a low level of unsaturation are disclosed herein. The low level of unsaturation provides resistance to heat, light, oxygen and ozone and yet provides sufficient sites for crosslinking of the blend to provide increased stability. These blends exhibit high conductivity upon doping with electron donors or electron acceptors.

Method for preparing an electrically conductive polymer blend

N-alkynyl polyvinylpyridinium resists, which are sensitive to both electrons and deep U.V., are disclosed.

Process of using N-alkynyl polyvinylpyridinium resists having electron

Electrically conductive polymer blends of an acetylene polymer, such as poly(acetylene), and a triblock thermoplastic elastomer, such as styrene-butadiene-styrene, are disclosed. In addition, a method for preparing such blends wherein the acetylene polymer is preferentially formed in the central elastomeric block of the triblock copolymer is disclosed. These blends exhibit high conductivity and elasticity upon doping with electron donors or electron acceptors.
