Dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid (DBSA) doped nanocomposites of Polypyrrole-silicon carbide (PPy-SiC) were synthesized via insitu chemical oxidation polymerization of Pyrrole act as monomer. Dodecylbenzene sulfonic acid and Iron (III) chloride were used as a dopant and oxidization agent, respectively. The molar ratio of monomer unit to oxidization agent was 1:2.4. These nanocomposites were characterized for their structure, thermal stability, surface morphology and DC electrical conductivity by UV-Visible spectroscopy, FT-IR, XRD, TGA, SEM and four-probe method respectively. The electrical property of chemically prepared Polypyrrole and Polypyrrole/SiC in aqueous solution was found to be strongly depending on doping material, oxidant and solvent. It obeys Ohm's Law and convincing applies for battery technology and sensor applications.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
