“…For example, polymers can obtain good solubility and processability by introducing specific functional groups, i.e., poly (3-hexylthiophene NCP based composites exhibit outstanding performances owing to the synergistic performance derived from each component [15]. Finally, it is motivating to investigate suitable applications of NCPs and NCP-based composites by the increasing number of academic and industrial laboratories [9,16], including energy conversion and storage (batteries, supercapacitors, dielectric capacitors, solar cells, fuel cells) [6,7,14,[17][18][19][20][21][22], chemical sensors [23][24][25][26], biosensors [27][28][29], catalysis [30,31], optical devices [32], electroactive devices [33,34], biomedical devices [12,13], electromagnetic interference shielding [35], corrosion protection [16,36], antistatic agent [9], removal of heavy metal ions [37], tissue engineering [38] and other applications. NCPs and NCPbased composites can provide significant improvement of properties, including enhancing electrolyte diffusion for batteries and supercapacitors, improving dielectric performance in ferroelectric polymers-based capacitors, supporting effective exciton dissociation in solar cells, reducing response times and enhancing sensitivity of biosensors and chemical sensors and raising anti-corrosion efficiency.…”
