5. We are, of course, aware of the important work by the Bayer group on the development of a water-soluble formulation for PEDOT, which is based on polyelectrolyte complex formation with poly(sodium 4-styrenesulfonate). In contrast, the present manuscript is focused on particulate colloidal forms of PEDOT.
