Abstract
The invention relates to a process for the production of an electrically conducting article, in which process a polymer composition, comprising a carrier polymer, is stretched and, during stretching of the polymer composition, polymerisation of monomers takes place to form a conjugated polymer, characterised in that the polymer composition contains precursor monomers prior to stretching and the monomers are obtained by activating precursor monomers during the stretching step. It has been found that using the process according to the invention articles can be obtained which, in addition to good electrically conducting properties, also have good mechanical properties.
