Conducting polypyrrole films with thickness of about 8 mum were prepared on platinum by continuous scanning in 0.1M pyrrole and 0.1M electrolyte (LiCl, LiBF(4) or NaBF(4)). Scan-rates of 10, 20 and 50 mV/sec with scan-times of 30, 45 and 60 min were used. The potentiometric response of the films was tested over a range of anions. Films were found to be anion-sensitive but very non-selective. The influence of the doping cation was also investigated.

In this article, a series of novel conducting copolymers P(FuPy--EDOT) are prepared via cyclic voltammetry electropolymerization method by using N-furfuryl pyrrole (FuPy) and 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT) as comonomers. The molecular structure, surface morphology, electrochemical, and optical properties of the resulting copolymers are characterized in detail upon varying the feed ratios of FuPy/EDOT in the range of 1/1 to 1/9. The results demonstrate that the prepared P(FuPy--EDOT) copolymers with a higher proportion of EDOT units (FuPy/EDOT: 2/8~1/9) possess good redox activity, tunable optical absorption performances, and low band gaps (1.

To form nonspherical emulsion droplets, the interfacial tension driving droplet sphericity must be overcome. This can be achieved through interfacial particle jamming; however, careful control of particle coverage is required. In this work, we present a scalable novel batch process to form nonspherical particle-stabilized emulsions.

Article Synopsis
  • - The spatial distribution of component species in electroactive film devices is crucial for understanding their performance, influencing both transport rates and mechanical properties.
  • - Specular neutron reflectivity (NR) is a technique that can profile individual species at "buried" interfaces, although it has traditionally had poor time resolution.
  • - This study demonstrates improved NR measurements that allow for spatial and temporal resolution during processes like polypyrrole electrodeposition and copper deposition/dissolution, revealing insights into film homogeneity and complex solvent interactions.

The integration of polypyrrole (PPy) into bacterial cellulose (BC) has provided significant conductivity and cost benefits. However, this combination has led to a reduction in mechanical properties, particularly in terms of elongation at break and tensile strength. This study investigated the enhancement of BC/PPy composite films by incorporating polyvinyl alcohol (PVA).

Robust, ultra-flexible, and multifunctional MXene-based electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding nanocomposite films exhibit enormous potential for applications in artificial intelligence, wireless telecommunication, and portable/wearable electronic equipment. In this work, a nacre-inspired multifunctional heterocyclic aramid (HA)/MXene@polypyrrole (PPy) (HMP) nanocomposite paper with large-scale, high strength, super toughness, and excellent tolerance to complex conditions is fabricated through the strategy of HA/MXene hydrogel template-assisted in-situ assembly of PPy. Benefiting from the "brick-and-mortar" layered structure and the strong hydrogen-bonding interactions among MXene, HA, and PPy, the paper exhibits remarkable mechanical performances, including high tensile strength (309.
