Abstract
The influence of the morphology on the magnetic properties of poly(3-hexylthiophene) has been studied and the results reported. The changes in the saturation magnetization were explained considering the polymer morphology prepared with different amounts of water in the solution during sample synthesis. The results show that the saturation magnetization is maximized for 200 ppm of the water in acetonitrile solution.
