Carbon aerogel (CA) is a new type of lightweight porous material with many excellent properties. Here, CAFe-PPy was prepared via iron and conductive polymer polypyrrole (PPy) on carbon aerogel. The physical properties of CA and CAFe-ppy were compared. Iron, nitrogen and oxygen were successfully loaded onto CAFe-PPy. PPy can increase the conductivity of CAFe-PPy, but it also blocks some holes.
