Abstract: A convenient way to prepare water-soluble or water-dispersible conducting polyaniline was developed by employing protonic acid dopants containing hydrophilic ethyleneoxide oligomer as counter-ion. The conducting polyaniline possesses electrical conductivity in the range of 10-3 to 10-2 S/cm depending on the chosen dopant, and it displays an excellent electrochemical redox reversibility in non-aqueous systems.

Key words: Conducting polyaniline, Water-solubility, Water-dispersibility
