“…Montmorillonite (MMT) is a 2D layered phyllosilicate clay built of two tetrahedral and one octahedral sheet, which has been widely used in the preparation of nanocomposites due to its low cost, abundance in nature, zero toxicity, high specific surface area, swelling abilities and ion-exchange properties [ 8 , 9 ]. Various MMT composites with polyaniline [ 8 , 10 ], polypyrrole [ 11 , 12 ], poly (3,4-ethylenediaoxythiophene) [ 13 ] and polyphenylenediamine [ 14 , 15 ] were prepared by chemical [ 8 , 12 ] or electrochemical [ 13 ] polymerization and have been used as electrode material for oxygen reduction [ 16 ], anticorrosion coatings [ 6 , 11 ], sensors [ 17 , 18 ], conducting fillers [ 19 ], adsorbents [ 20 ] and supercapacitors [ 7 ].…”
