Abstract
A method of forming a conductive polymer comprising a blend of at least one processable polymer, polyacetylene and a dopant by impregnating the processable polymer with a Ziegler-Natta catalyst; exposing the impregnated polymer to acetylene gas, whereby substantially linear molecules of polyacetylene are formed within a matrix of the processable polymer; and introducing a dopant into the polyacetylene, whereby a conductive blend is formed.
