Pressure dependence of the dielectric loss in semi-conducting polypyrrole aged at room temperature

The effect of physical aging of semi-conducting polypyrrole at ambient temperature for two years duration on the dielectric loss at various pressures is investigated. Changes of the dielectric loss spectra and the modification of the values of the activation volume for relaxation are interpreted through the division of chain clusters into smaller components and the reduction of the size of the conductive grains.
