Study the electrical conductivity of cross-linked polymers in the pure and doped state. +CD

Polymers such as common plastic are insulators [1]. The term "electrical conduction" is usually assigned to metals or alloys. The discovery of conducting polymers has opened a new branch in material research [2]. The idea that plastics could be made to conduct electricity would have been considered to be absurd. Indeed, plastics have been extensively used by the electronics industry because of this very property. They were utilized as inactive packaging and insulating material figure (1.1) gives the electrical conductivities of some common polymers.
