One-step synthesis of polypyrrole-coated silver nanocomposite particles and their application as a coloured particulate emulsifier

摘要

Polypyrrole-coated silver nanocomposite particles were synthesized by one-step aqueous chemical oxidative dispersion polymerization of pyrrole using silver nitrate as an oxidant. The synthesized nanocomposite particles behaved as a 'coloured' particulate emulsifler for the stabilization of oil-in-water emulsions.
