Presentation Summary

Polyethylenedioxythiophene-polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT/PSS, BAYTRON® P) is a versatile, solution-processible inherently conductive polymer useful for making transparent conductive and antistatic films.
Understanding the basic structural properties of the PEDOT/PSS polymer and its chemical & physical interactions with a variety of coating additives enables end-users to prepare stable, easy-to-use coating dispersions and even to print PEDOT/PSS polymers using e.g. silkscreen printing.
In addition to highly conductive PEDOT/PSS dispersions H.C. Starck also produces wet-processible organic semiconductors. A new class of organosilicon oligothiophenes, Ampertron™ SD, has been tested successfully as a semiconducting layer in organic thin film transistors.

Speaker Biography

Detlef Gaiser is a chemist working at H.C. Starck Leverkusen, Germany. He is a manager for application engineering for CLEVIOS P (PEDOT/ PSS) dispersions and Ampertron™ oligothiophenes for the use in polymer electronics. He obtained his diploma and Ph.D. from the University of Cologne, Germany, studying the "Synthesis and Properties of New Zirconium N-Donor Complexes". In 1998 he joined the Electronic Chemicals group of the Bayer AG, Leverkusen, as a research chemist working on the synthesis of the BAYTRON® M monomer. In 2002 he transferred to H.C. Starck, Leverkusen and worked as a plant manager for colloidal silica. In 2006 he joined the CLEVIOS P application engineering team.

Company Profile

H.C. Starck Clevios GmbH is a 100% daughter of H.C. Starck GmbH, Germany. H.C. Starck Clevios GmbH manufactures a range of patented conductive polymers based on PEDOT:PSS (Clevios P) - chemistry for electronic applications. From conductive polymers for antistatic, OLED, organic solar cell and capacitor applications to new printable applications, versatile Clevios meets the requirements of emerging flexible electronic materials. High conductive materials, such as PEDOT:PSS with 750 S/cm and new HIL materials will be spotlighted by the company.
