The synergistic combination of high doping level and layer structure, accounts for the moderately high electrical conductivities (σ) and low constant Seebeck coefficients (α) of PANI-DBSA. Conversely, the poor doping ability of NaSIPA and low crystallinity degree explain the low electrical conductivities along with significant increases in Seebeck coefficient values. In relation to conduction mechanisms, PANI-DBSA shows a hopping behavior with a carrier concentration of c≈0.49 (hole type), while PANI-NaSIPA displays a diffusive regime, characteristic of degenerate metallic semiconductors, with an estimated charge carrier density of n≈3 × 1021 e/cm3.engjournal articlehttps://doi.org/10.1016/j.synthmet.2018.06.002https://www.sciencedirect.com/science/article/pii/S0379677918301255open access577.1547Conducting polymersPolyanilineElectrical conductivitySeebeck coefficientThermoelectrical propertiesBioquímica (Química)Química orgánica (Química)2306 Química Orgánica
