Electrically conductive plastic (IMAGE)
Caption
Electrically conductive plastic is also known as conjugated polymers. Conjugated polymers are semiconducting materials analogous to inorganic semiconductors such as silicon. This semiconducting nature makes it possible to manufacture a new type of technology – organic electronics – which can be used in many different areas such as energy conversion and storage, wearable electronics, electronic textiles and biotechnology in connection with or near the body.
