Non-enzymatic glucose biosensors show high sensitivity, lower response time, wide linear range and low cost. Copper based composites show excellent electrocatalytic tunability and lead to a better charge transfer in electrochemical non-enzymatic glucose biosensors. In this work, a nanocomposite of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) and copper selenide was synthesized by a facile one pot sol gel method.

Article Synopsis
  • Researchers developed durable textile sensors by coating fabrics with copper and silver particles through a two-step chemical process, creating a network for better electrical conduction.
  • The coated fabrics were analyzed for electrical properties, showing a minimum surface resistivity of 67 Ω and effective electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding at 66 dB across a frequency range of 200 MHz to 1500 MHz.
  • The conductive textiles demonstrated impressive durability, maintaining their electrical properties and metal coating even after severe washing, supported by scanning electron microscopy analysis.

In the current research, we present a single-step, one-pot, room temperature green synthesis approach for the development of functional poly(tannic acid)-based silver nanocomposites. Silver nanocomposites were synthesized using only tannic acid (plant polyphenol) as a reducing and capping agent. At room temperature and under mildly alkaline conditions, tannic acid reduces the silver salt into nanoparticles.
