Abstract
Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDT) is a new polymeric organic con ductor which, when combined with polystyrene sulphonic acid, produces a system that can be processed as an aqueous solution and yields effec tive antistatic coatings for films. The antistatic effect is achieved with coating weights of just a few mg PEDT/m(2), resulting in films wi th a surface resistivity of 10(6) Omega/square.
