“…In this group of conducting polymers, one can mention: poly( p ‐phenylene) (PPP), poly( p ‐phenylene vinylene) (PPV), poly( p ‐phenylene ethynylene) (PPE), polypyrrole (PPy), polyaniline (PANI), and polyfluorene (PF) . One of the best known group of conductive polymers is represented by polythiophene (PTh) and its derivatives . Pure polythiophene (PTh) is inprocessable and insoluble in common solvents due to strong intermolecular (interchain) interactions.…”

The article presents the data concerning the synthesis of polythiophene (PTh) nanoparticles in aqueous medium applying emulsion polymerization. The synthetic method was studied in variety of combinations of initiator and surfactant. It was found that application of potassium peroxydisulfate (KPS) as initiator and sodium dodecyl sulfate (SDS) as the surfactant gives the best product yields. The structure, morphology, and physicochemical properties have been analyzed showing that the resulting latex have conducting film forming properties. Resulting polymers were characterized via fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR), scanning electron microscope (SEM), thermogravimetry-differential thermal analysis (TG-DTA), differential scanning calorimetry (DSC), and electrochemical methods [e.g. current-voltage characteristics (I-V), activation energy of electric conductivity, and doping processes]. A mechanism of the polymerization reaction is also discussed.

“…Carbon nanotubes (CNTs) have the unique behavior in electrical, chemical, mechanical and structural properties [6]. CNTs can enhance the electrochemical reactivity of biomolecules and can promote the electron transfer of oxidation-reduction in electropolymerization and increased the amount of polymer loading on the large effective surface area of CNTs [7][8][9]. The well-known technique, in situ electrochemical-surface plasmon resonance (EC-SPR) spectroscopy, has been used for investigation the optical and electrical properties of conducting polymer films at solid/liquid interfaces.…”

Electropolymerization of carboxylated conducting polymer/carbon nanotubes (CNTs) composites thin films has been studied by in situ electrochemical-surface plasmon resonance (EC-SPR) spectroscopy. Two derivatives of benzothiophene, thianaphthene-2-carboxylic acid and benzothiophene-2-propionic acid, composited with CNTs were electropolymerized in an acetonitrile with the potential range between 0 and 1.2 V at scan rate of 20 mV/s. The obtained films were characterized by in situ EC-SPR spectroscopy, UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, and atomic force microscopy. It was found that CNTs can improve properties of polymer/CNT composites films. Moreover, the obtained thianaphthene-2-carboxylic acid film can be further used for construction of immunosensor for detection of human IgG.
