Poly(4-Vinylpyridine) was synthesized by free radicalic polymerization
. Solution doping process with metallic sodium was carried out. A cond
uctivity value around 10(-6) S/cm was obtained. Relative change in the
conductivity with dopant concentration, temperature dependence of con
ductivity, conductivity behavior in atmospheric conditions for the sam
ples were analyzed. SEM and EDX techniques mere also used for the char
acterization of the polymer.
