ABSTRACT:
Electrically conductive polyparaphenylene polymer compositions are disclosed, as well as methods for their preparation and use, including use of the polymers in constructing a sensor. The polymer compositions have the characteristics of being both solution processible, as well as electrically conductive. The polymers are produced by placing a metal electrode into an aprotic solution of biphenyl. Current is then passed through the electrode such that the electrode becomes the anode and such that the biphenyl polymerizes and is deposited on the electrode. A sensor is produced by incorporating a sensor species into a polyparaphenylene polymer prepared according to the teaching of the present invention. This can be accomplished by polymerizing the biphenyl in the presence of the sensor species.
