One of the most important textile materials, poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fiber, was coated with a semi-conductive polyfuran (PFu) by in situ oxidative polymerization using FeCl₃ oxidant in solvent mixture of acetonitrile–chloroform. The effects of polymerization conditions such as volume ratios of acetonitrile/chloroform, monomer concentration, and oxidant/monomer mol ratio were investigated on PFu content (%) of the composites. It was observed that pretreatment of PET in dichloromethane increased PFu content and its coating continuity before polymerization. The highest PFu content (12.0%) was obtained using FeCl₃/furan mol ratios of 3.5 in acetonitrile/chloroform mixture (5/1). The density values of the composites with different PFu contents were measured. Composite fibers were also subjected to doping processes with HCl and I₂ vapors, separately, and it was observed that the surface resistivity of PFu/PET (10¹² Ω/cm²) reached to 53 Ω/cm² after doping with I₂. The structural, thermal, and morphological characterization was performed with FTIR, XRD, TGA, and SEM, respectively.
