Patent ID: 6887556

Claim:
A material for making a conductive pattern, said material comprising a support and a heat-differentiable element, said heat-differentiable element comprising an outermost layer containing a polyanion and an intrinsically conductive polymer and optionally a second layer contiguous with said outermost layer, characterized in that said outermost layer and/or said optional second layer contains hydrophobic thermocoagulable latex particles in a weight ratio range with respect to said intrinsically conductive polymer in the range of 20:1 to 1:5, said hydrophobic thermocoagulable latex particles are capable upon heating of increasing the conductivity of the heated parts of said outermost layer relative to the unheated parts of said outermost layer and/or changing the removability of the heated parts of said outermost layer relative to the unheated parts of said outermost layer and said heat-differentiable element does not comprise a di- or polyhydroxy organic compound or an aprotic compound with a dielectric constant, âˆˆ, â‰§15.
