Abstract :
Several polymers have been synthesized that have the ability to conduct electricity. Several companies and universities are actively investigating these polymers to develop industrially useful products. The authors give an overview of the work performed on conducting polymers and discuss the possible applications of such materials. Attention is given to applications of these materials in such areas as electric power equipment, microelectronics, batteries, and microtools
