This likely refers to the academic book by Prasanna Chandrasekhar . It is a foundational text in materials science that explains how certain plastics can be engineered to conduct electricity.
The book is structured to take you from basic chemical principles to high-tech industrial uses. 1. Fundamentals and Theory Conducting Polymers, Fundamentals and Applicati...
Explains the "doping" process—how adding or removing electrons from the polymer chain (like polyaniline or polypyrrole) allows charge to move. This likely refers to the academic book by
Discussion on the environmental and thermal stability of these materials, which is a major hurdle for commercial use. 3. Applications Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs)
Chemical and biological sensors that detect gases or glucose levels.
Plastic solar cells, Organic Light Emitting Diodes (OLEDs), and flexible circuits.
The second half of the book focuses on how these "synthetic metals" are used in the real world:
