New polyaniline/polypyrrole/ polythiophene and functionalized multiwalled car…

In this endeavor, a new type of nanocomposites has been developed from conducting organic polymers (layer-by-layer in situ polymerization of various monomers) and functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs). Initially, functionalization of MWCNTs was achieved by sulfuric acid H2SO4):nitric acid (HNO3) and HNO3:hydrogen peroxide treatment. A comparative study regarding the synthetic, mo…
