Presentation Summary

  • Polyethylenedioxythiophene-polystyrenesulfonate (PEDOT/PSS, CLEVIOS™ P) is a versatile inherently Conductive Polymer and a Solution-Processable alternative to ITO and metal powder-filled inks for Printed Electronics applications.
  • The basic structural properties of the PEDOT/PSS polymer and its chemical and physical interactions with a variety of coating additives will be summarized. New Ready-to-Use coating Formulations having outstanding Visible Light Transmissivity, Electrical Conductivity and Environmental Stability will be introduced.
