Abstract: Polyanilines are provided that are soluble and that form crystaline solids upon precipitation. The solid polyanilines are electrically conductive, soluble, and can be fabricated into various shaped articles for use in, for example, batteries, electrodes, photovoltaic cells, semi-conductor devices and the like.

Abstract: A method of emulsion polymerization of aniline or substituted anilines for making substituted or unsubstituted homopolymers and co-polymers of aniline. The method includes formation of an emulsion of aniline monomers, polar solvent, non-polar or weakly polar solvent and functionalized protonic acid, which is selected for its ability to perform two functions: acting as a surfactant and acting as a protonating agent (dopant) in producing an electrically conducting polymer. Then, an oxidant is added to polymerize the ingredients of the emulsion. This method provides polyaniline particles of highly crystalline and oriented morphologies of controlled aspect ratios.

Abstract: Solutions and plasticized compositions of electrically conductive substituted and unsubstituted polyanilines in nonpolar organic fluid phases with functionalized protonic acids are disclosed as are methods of forming such solutions or compositions and use of same to form conductive articles.
