Abstract

Abstract A composition for absorbing electromagnetic radiation (such as microwave, infrared, visible light radiation ultraviolet radiation), wherein said electromagnetic radiation possesses a wavelength generally in the range of from about 1000 Angstroms to about 50 meters, wherein said composition comprises a polyaniline composition of the formula ##STR1## where y can be equal to or greater than zero and R' and R 2 are independently selected from the group consisting of --H, --OCH 3 , --CH 3 , --F, --Cl, --Br, --I, --NR 3 2 , --NHCOR 3 , --OH, --O, --SR 3 , --OR 3 , --OCOR 3 , --NO 2 , --COOH, --COOR 3 , --COR 3 , --CHO, and --CN, where R 3 is a C 1 to C a alkyl, aryl or aralkyl group.
