Preparation and electrorheology of new mesoporous polypyrrole/MCM-41 suspensions.

The article discusses on a new type of anhydrous electrorheological fluid based on conducting polypyrrole confined in mesoporous silica (MCM-41) channels is prepared and its electrorheological behavior is also investigated. The preparation of MCM-41 followed the method described in literature. Incorporation of polypyrrole in the pores of mesoporous silica is worth investigating, as it can be beneficial for further exploring electronic characteristics and applications of the resultant composite.
