Polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles were synthesized successfully by oxidation polymerization in droplets by microfluidic system. The oxidizing agent ammonium persulfate was added at various molar ratios with respect to the monomer. The details of the procedure, droplet formation inside the channel and the effects of various factors are described. The method is a fast and continuous way for the synthesis of PPy. Products were characterized using Fourier-transform infrared spectroscopy, field emission scanning electron microscopy, transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, thermal gravimetric analysis, cyclic voltammetry, electrochemical impedance spectroscopy and photoluminescence spectroscopy.

Background: Bacteria in physiological environments can generate mineralizing biofilms, which are associated with diseases like periodontitis or kidney stones. Modelling complex environments presents a challenge for the study of mineralization in biofilms. Here, we developed an experimental setup which could be applied to study the fundamental principles behind biofilm mineralization on rigid substrates, using a model organism and in a tailored bioreactor that mimics a humid environment.

An efficient Suzuki cross-coupling reaction under continuous flow conditions was developed utilizing an immobilized solid supported catalyst consisting of bimetallic nickel-palladium nanoparticles (Ni-Pd/MWCNTs). In this process, the reactants can be continuously pumped into a catalyst bed at a high flow rate of 0.6 mL/min and the temperature of 130 °C while the Suzuki products are recovered in high steady-state yields for prolonged continuous processing.
