Low temperature solid state processing of pure P3HT fibers

Fibers of pure poly(3-hexylthiophene) (P3HT) of 1 and 2 mm diameter, were produced from solid state processing at temperatures of 200, 150 and 100ºC, i.e. up to more than 100 ºC below the melting point of P3HT (∼240 ºC), using a small device reminiscent with the early stage polymer extrusion machine...
