Toward Colloidal Dispersions of Template Synthesized Polypyrrole Nanotubules

摘要

A procedure for preparing colloidal dispersions of template- synthesized polypyrrole nanotubules is described. This procedure entails the use of an anionic surfactant as a dispersing agent, and slow dissolution of the template membrane is critical. Dispersion of nominally 200 nm and 50 nm diameter polypyrrole nanotubules have been prepared.
