Electrical properties of polypyrrole wires measured by scanning probe microscope

Insights into properties, synthesis and emerging applications of polypyrrole-based composites, and future prospective: A review

“…Conducting polymers possess the delocalization of π electrons, which is why they exhibit good electrical properties and can be used in various electronic devices [ 90 ]. Electrical properties are also affected by doping and the route adopted for the preparation of the polymer [ 91 ]. Among numerous conducting polymers, polypyrrole possesses good electrical conductivity, and this property can be further improved by using an appropriate oxidant during polymerization.…”

Synthesis and Properties of Electroconductive Polymeric Composite Material Based on Polypyrrole

“…Polypyrrole can be obtained by chemical or electrochemical synthesis [12][13][14][15][16]. Chemical polymerization makes it possible to form PPy coatings on the objects of different geometry (microspheres, solid, and porous films, etc.)…”

Novel synthesis of silica/polypyrrole hybrid nanocomposites via microemulsion polymerization with a vapor monomer feeding system

“…The interest in such core-shell materials stems from the fact that the mechanical, optical, electrical, magnetic, and catalytic properties of core or shell can be tailored by their size, morphology, components, and structure. Conducting polymers with large π-conjugated structure, such as polypyrrole (PPy), have received the considerable attention due to their wide applications in electrical devices and sensor materials based on their facile preparation, design flexibility, high and tunable conductivity, and environmental stability, [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] which are unavailable for the inorganic semiconductors. However, PPy has their own shortcomings such as low mechanical strength and low sensitivity for gas sensor application, which could reduce their potential for future applications.…”
