Summary: A simple quantitative model for the analysis of EFM images of three‐ or more‐component polymer blends is applied to determine the dielectric constants of the blend constituents. The value of the dielectric constant of PIPA calculated from the EFM images of POMA‐PIPA‐APP blend is determined in good agreement with the literature value.

A quantum‐mechanical model of charge condensation is proposed for non‐conjugated polar elastomers It was found that the stability of the bi‐ and multi‐polaron state may be achieved if the dielectrical permeability of the matrix is high enough. It is shown that the multi‐electron unit, called as superplaron, should have a linear structure and possess ferromagnetic properties. The one‐dimensional character of the conductivity of a superpolaron leads to the formation of electron pairs and to the appearance of high temperature superconductivity of superpolarons. A lot of experimental data confirms the real existance of superconductivity at some polar elastomers at 300 K.
General principles of the creation of superconductivity at the polymers are considered. It is shown that high temperature superconductivity may be produced only at really one‐dimensional conducting materials. It is also shown that conjugated polymers cannot have onedimensional conductivity. The new class of nonconjugated polar elastomers is proposed as a perspective one for the creation of high temperature superconductive structures–superpolarons–which appear as a result of internal selfionization of the polymer matrix and a consequent selforganization of free polarons. The practical methods of the formation of superpolarons are shown for the films of oxidized atactice polypropylene. Evidences are given which show the existence of superconductive structures in oxidized polypropylene at room temperature.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
