Abstract: There are provided electrically conducting polymer compositions comprising an electrectically conductive polymer or copolymer and an organic solvent wettable fluorinated acid polymer. Electrically conductive polymer materials are derived from thiophene, pyrrole, aniline and polycyclic heteroaromatic precursor monomers. Non-conductive polymers derived from alkenyl, alkynyl, arylene, and heteroarylene precursor monomers. The organic-solvent wettable fluorinated acid polymer is fluorinated or highly fluorinated and may be colloid-forming. Acidic groups include carboxylic acid groups, sulfonic acid groups, sulfonimide groups, phosphoric acid groups, phosphonic acid groups, and combinations thereof. The compositions can be used in organic electronic devices.

Abstract: Methods are provided to producing stable, aqueous dispersions of polyaniline and colloid-forming polymeric acids. Films from the disclosed compositions are useful as buffer layers, in organic electronic devices including electroluminescent devices, such as organic light emitting diodes (OLED) displays. Films cast from the compositions are also useful in combination with nanometal wires or carbon nanotubes in applications such as drain, source, or gate electrodes in thin film field effect transistors.
