Abstract: There is provided herein a process of integrating electrically conductive material into a surface layer of an electrically conductive polymer, comprising the steps of including an electrically conductive material in a polymerisation mixture capable of forming an electrically conductive polymer, such that the material is provided across an uppermost and/or a lowermost region of the polymerisation mixture; and subsequently polymerising the polymerisation mixture. Also provided is an electrically conductive polymer and a supercapacitor formed using the process.
