    Abstract: A method of first dissolving a conjugated polymer in a fluid followed by adding an agent to the fluid and evaporating the fluid to produce a solid sample. The solid sample is then ground to produce a fragmented solid sample. This is followed by performing solvent extraction on the fragmented solid sample at elevated temperature and pressure to produce a purified conjugated polymer in a solvent.
