Claims
- 1. A semi-conductive thermoplastic polymeric Johnsen-Rahbeck system that is prepared by the process comprising:
- (a) reacting, in a liquid medium, an anion-containing thermoplastic organic polymer with a quaternary amine counter-ion to form a polarizable salt reaction product;
- (b) separating the reaction product from the reaction medium; and
- (c) removing substantially all unreacted reactants and impurities from the reaction product to thereby form the Johnsen-Rahbeck system.
- 2. The system of claim 1 wherein said anion is selected from the group consisting of carboxylates, sulfonates, phosphonics, halides, Group VIa and VIIa elements and transition metal elements, and their complexes.
- 3. The system of claim 1 wherein the organic polymer comprises an aliphatic, aromatic or halocarbon backbone.
- 4. The system of claim 1 wherein the polymer comprises polymer particles of less than about 3 mm average size.
- 5. The system of claim 1 further comprising drying and pressing the semiconductive washed reaction product into a film.
