Abstract
Disclosed are polythiophene-based conductive polymer liquid compositions of high conductivity and transparency. The compositions comprise 16-32 weight % of an aqueous polythiophene-based conductive polymer solution, 52-80 weight % of an alcohol solvent, 1-12 weight % of an amide solvent, 0.01-0.4 weight % of a sulfonic acid group-containing monomer dopant, and optionally 2-8 weight % of an alkoxysilane. The compositions can be applied to transparent substrates to form coatings which have a surface resistance of 1 k&OHgr;/□ or less and a transmittance of 92% or higher. With the excellent conductivity and transparency, the compositions are useful as electromagnetic wave-shielding materials, finding numerous applications in cathode ray tube screens (TV sets and computer monitors) as well as CPP films, polyethyleneterephthalate films, polycarbonate panels, and acryl panels.
