Abstract

A new oxydative-resistant, fusible and processible ethylene/acetylene copolymer has been synthesized. The content of rigid (acetylene) and flexible (ethylene) fragments has been widely varied. The structure of the nascent powders and the films compressed at room temperature have been investigated by SEM and WAXS. DSC has been used for studying the thermal properties. DC conductivity of the iodine doped samples has been measured as a function of temperature. It is shown that the doping leads to arising conductivity in the samples even at 10 Mol % acetylene fragments in copolymer. The conductivity up to 10−3 S/cm is reached for the samples with acetylene fragment concentration about 20 Mol %. It is found that a charge carrier transport in investigated copolymers is caused by doped polyacetylene fragments and described by the hopping Mechanism.
