Abstract
- The relationship between nanoscaled morphology and macroscopic electrical conductivity of polypyrrole (PPy) nanostructures was qualitatively investigated. The PPy nanostructures were prepared via microemulsion polymerization using ionic surfactants. The morphology of PPy was influenced by both the type of ionic surfactants and reaction sequences; specifically, the PPy structures were highly influenced by the reaction sequence when anionic surfactant of SDS was used. By changing reaction sequence, a gel-like PPy was formed influencing on the macroscopic electrical conductivity. The results indicate that the macroscopic conductivity of PPy is affected by its nanoscaled structures as determined by the reaction conditions. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
