A porous nanocomposite based on polypyrrole (PPy) and sodium alginate (SA) has been synthesized by easy, inexpensive, eco-friendly method. As prepared nanocomposite showed fibrillar morphology in transmission electron microscopic (TEM) analysis. The average diameter of ~100 nm for the nanofibers was observed from scanning electron microscopic (SEM) analysis. As prepared nanofiber, was investiga...

Here we report a facile eco-friendly one-step electrochemical approach for the fabrication of a polypyrrole (PPy), reduced graphene oxide (RGO), and gold nanoparticles (nanoAu) biocomposite on a glassy carbon electrode (GCE). The electrochemical behaviors of PPy-RGO-nanoAu and its application to electrochemical detection of hydrogen peroxide were investigated by cyclic voltammetry. Graphene oxi...

Electropolymerization biocarriers were prepared by the electropolymerization of polypyrrole (PPy) on an active carbon felt (ACF) electrode using doping anions anthraquinone-2-sulfonate (AQS) or Na(2)SO(4). The functional electropolymerization biocarrier (ACF/PPy/AQS) with AQS was used as an immobilized redox mediator for the denitrification process. The characteristics of the electropolymerizat...

Singlet and triplet–triplet energy transfer in phosphorescent dye doped polymer light emitting devices were investigated. Poly(N-vinylcarbazol) and poly@9,98-di-n-hexyl-2,7-fluorene-alt1,4-(2,5-di-n-hexyloxy)phenylene] ~PFHP! were selected as the host polymer for the phosphorescent dopants fac-tris~2-phenylpyridine! iridium~III! @Ir(ppy)3# and 2,3,7,8,12,13, 17,18-octaethyl-21H,23H-porphyrin pl...

Stable magnetic nanofluids containing Fe3O4@Polypyrrole (PPy) nanoparticles (NPs) were prepared by using a facile and novel method, in which one-pot route was used. FeCl3·6H2O was applied as the iron source, and the oxidizing agent to produce PPy. Trisodium citrate (Na3cit) was used as the reducing reagent to form Fe3O4 NPs. The as-prepared nanofluid can keep long-term stability. The Fe3O4@PPy ...

Here we explored a novel ZnO nanorod array template-assisted electrodeposition route to synthesize large-scale single-walled polypyrrole (PPy) nanotube arrays (NTAs) and multi-walled MnO(2)/PPy/MnO(2) NTAs. The structures of nanotubes, such as external and inner diameters, wall thicknesses, and lengths, can be well controlled by adjusting the diameters and lengths of ZnO nanorods and deposition...

The trinuclear complex [{Ir(ppy)(2)}(3)(L(1))(2)](OTf)(3) (1) is a bright red luminophore whereas the monomer [Ir(ppy)(2)L(2)](OTf) (2) exhibits emission in the green region.

Polypyrrole (PPy) films of different thickness were characterized by electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) measurements in acetonitrile and aqueous solutions, containing 0.1 M NaClO4 or sodium dodecylsulfate as the dopant. The PPy films were electrochemically deposited on Pt, and their electrochemical properties studied by cyclic voltammetry. Impedance spectra were obtained at potentials...

A DFT/TDDFT investigation was carried out on a series of homoleptic triphenylamine-featured Ir(iii) complexes [: (fac-tris[2-phenyl-4-(2-(N,N-diphenylamino)phenyl)pyridine]iridium(iii)); : (fac-tris[2-phenyl-4-(3-(N,N-diphenylamino)phenyl)pyridine]iridium(iii)); : (fac-tris[2-phenyl-4-(4-(N,N-diphenylamino)phenyl)pyridine]iridium(iii))] with one triphenylamine unit in the 2-phenylpyridine (ppy)...

Methyl tert-butyl ether (MTBE) has been used as a common gasoline additive worldwide since the late twentieth century, and it has become the most frequently detected groundwater pollutant in many countries. This study aimed to synthesize a novel microbial carrier to improve its adsorptive capacity for MTBE and biofilm formation, compared to the traditional granular activated carbon (GAC). A pol...
