Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) grains were synthesized by solvent-free chemical oxidative polymerization in one-step and one-pot manner. The resulting PEDOT grains had atypical shapes with a volume-average diameter of 57 ± 45 µm and showed an electrical conductivity of 1.9 × 10−3 S cm−1. Furthermore, it was clarified that the PEDOT grains showed light-to-heat photothermal property.
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.
