| Abstract: | Poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) solid and hollow microspheres were successfully synthesized by simply adjusting the concentration of 3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) and the molar ratio of EDOT to ammonium persulfate (APS) (represented by (EDOT)/(APS)), respectively. Microwave absorbing properties of PEDOT microspheres with tunable reflection loss (RL) and microwave frequency band were described in detail. The relationships between the conductivity and RL of PEDOT microspheres were also discussed. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. |
