US Patent 9296921 Conductive polymer composition and process for preparing the same

A conductive polymer composition which can be homogeneously dissolved in a solvent and can form a smooth film. The conductive polymer composition is a conductive polymer composition comprising a polymer compound (A) and a π-conjugated polymer (β), wherein the polymer compound (A) is a polymer compound obtained by polymerizing 10 to 50% by mol of a monomer (a-1) having a sulfonic acid group or a sulfonate group, 10 to 90% by mol of a monomer (a-2) having chelating ability and 0 to 70% by mol of other monomer (a-3), and the π-conjugated polymer (β) is a π-conjugated polymer obtained by polymerizing at least one monomer selected from monomers represented by the following formulas (I) to (III).
