Synthesis, characterization and DC conductivity studies of polypyrrole/copper zinc iron oxide nanocomposites

Abstract: Polypyrrole and polypyrrole/copper zinc iron oxide (copper zinc ferrite) nanocomposites were synthesized by in-situ polymerization using Ammonium Persulphate as oxidising agent. The nanocomposites were synthesized by mixing polypyrrole and copper zinc iron oxide in different weight percentages. The formation of nanocomposites and changes in the structural properties were investigated by characterizing the samples using XRD, FTIR, SEM and EDX analysis. The size of the particle was analysed by XRD using Scherrer… Show more

“…The peaks at 3283 cm À 1 are assigned to the presence of NÀ H stretching vibrations. The observed peaks in Figure 2A confirm formation of polypyrrole and they are consistent with literature [27]. Figure 2B demonstrates FESEM images of the synthesized PPy on the surface of the Pt electrode.…”

“…Nanoscale conductive polymers with high surface-to-volume ratio and good conductivity are a suitable option as support. Polypyrrole (PPy) is a conductive polymer that can be synthesized using chemical and electrochemical methods in aqueous or a nonaqueous media in a wide range of pH [18][19][20]. Due to biocompatibility [21], conductivity [22], the possibility of synthesis at relatively low potentials (which means less energy consumption) [23], and, most importantly, the ability to interact (reversible deprotonation) with ammonium [24][25][26], PPy is a suitable option for urea biosensing applications.…”

“…The polymerization reaction rate is very important for the control of particle size, shape, and some other properties [27]. In some particular cases the polymerization rate is controlled by the variation of temperature, but other parameters as size and shape are rarely controlled this way [28]. From a technological point of view it is important to determine relatively mild oxidative conditions suitable for the chemical synthesis of Ppy which will allow slower and better controlled formation of Ppy.…”
