This Polymer Bulletin is a current awareness service from the Polymer Library, the world's largest database dedicated to polymer literature. Each time the abstracts database is updated with new records (approx. every two weeks) you will be sent a bulletin alerting you to any items that relate to conductive polymers.

Conductive Polymers (i.e. those which have significant conductivity) were first developed around 30 years ago, but it is only recently that their commercial viability has been recognised, highlighted by the fact that the conductive ‘iodine-doped Polyacetylene’ was developed in 1977, but not until 2000 was the Nobel prize awarded for it. The number of end-use applications has risen sharply in recent years due to the trend of miniaturisation and increased uses in the automotive industry through electrostatic paint application. The potential for use in anti-static packaging at low costs is also being explored. A June 2004 market report published by Freedonia confidently predicts that this large market will continue to grow steadily.

A Current Awareness service from Rapra may be just what you need to update your knowledge with ease and accuracy without having to waste time, effort and money finding the information yourself.

If there are many people within your organisation who would benefit from this information then get in touch to talk to us about our multi-recipient bulletin.

You can also request samples of this bulletin.
