These are presented by two subclasses of electroactive polymer (i) -conjugated polymers of both organic and inorganic nature [5-15] and (ii) conventional redox polymers [26], and by inorganic ion-insertion (intercalation) compounds [27, 28[ (see the top of Scheme 11.1b). Despite the different nature of their chemical bonds, all of these compounds are mixed, electronic-ionic conductors [29], and hence, their electronic and/or ionic conductivity is expected to change with the applied potential in a predictable, characteristic manner (see Section cl 1.4).
