Abstract
Conducting polyester PET and polyamide PA-6 fibre and fabrics were prepared by in-situ
chemical oxidative polymerisation using super critical fluid assisted
process. The fibre materials and cloths produced were characterized by
means of FTIR, WAXD, SEM, and DSC and two-probe resistivity. The samples
were studied also by means of washing them several times. Homogeneous
treated fibre materials with sustainable properties were produced. Melt
spun fibre material of inherently conducting polymer blends have been
reported earlier. Reasonable mechanical and electrical properties
(resistance of 105…107 Ω/cm) are typical for blend of polypropylene and polyaniline. With bi-component extrusion technology the fibre as good as 103…105 Ω/cm is reachable.
