The purpose of this study was to investigate the adsorption of uranium (VI) ions on the polypyrrole adsorbent. Polypyrrole was synthesized by a chemical method using polyethylene glycol, sodium dodecylbenzenesulfonate, and cetyltrimethylammonium bromide as the surfactant and iron (III) chloride as an oxidant in the aqueous solution. The effect of various surfactants on the synthesized polymers ...

Cotton fabric (CF) fabricated by natural cellulose fibers has porous structure, abundant hydrophilic hydroxyl groups and good mechanical flexibility, which is a promising substrate for flexible fabric-based supercapacitors. Graphene oxide (GO) nanosheets were fixed on the CF vacuum filtration, then pyrrole monomers silver ions (Ag+) adsorbed to surface of GO/CF π-π electrostatic interactions, r...

In this study, polypyrrole was deposited on the aluminium in different anions (C N Cr DBS–). The contribution of anions to formation of polypyrrole film was investigated by using cyclic voltammetry (CV) technique. The effect of polypyrrole film on the corrosion of aluminium was searched in 0.1 M HCI solution by using potentiostatic method. For this purpose, polarization curves were obtained, co...

Chitosan–silver (CS–Ag) nanocomposite materials were synthesized by a simple chemical method. The synthesized CS–Ag nanocomposite contains 20 wt% silver. Silver nanoparticles were synthesized by chemical reduction method as well. The CS–Ag nanocomposite was characterized using Field emission scanning electronic microscope (FESEM), X-ray diffraction (XRD) and Fourier transform infrared spectrosc...

A new nanocomposites series of polypyrrole/reduced graphene oxide (PPy/rGO) and covalently bonded with aryl 4-carboxybenzene diazonium salt (PPy/rGO-aryl-COOH) were prepared by simple one-step chemical oxidative synthesis. Spin coating technique was used to deposit the as-prepared on BOPET substrate for testing their chemiresistive sensitivity properties towards online detection (NO2) vapors at...

Dispersion of 2D carbon nitride (C3N4) nanosheets into a nickel phosphorous (NiP) matrix was successfully achieved by ultrasonication during the electroless plating of NiP from an acidic bath. The morphology and thickness, elemental analysis, phases, roughness, and wettability for as-plated and heat-treated nanocomposite were determined by scanning electron microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray s...

In this paper, Ni–TiO2 nanocomposite coatings with different sizes of TiO2 nanoparticles were successfully prepared by electrodeposition process from a nickel electrolyte in which the TiO2 nanoparticles were suspended. The influence of relevant deposition parameters on the nanocomposite coating characteristics was discussed. X-ray diffractometer has been applied in order to investigate the phas...

The interaction of proteins and cells with polymers is critical to their use in scientific and medical applications. In this study, plasma immersion ion implantation (PIII) was used to modify the surface of the conducting polymer, polypyrrole, which possesses electrical properties. PIII treatment enabled persistent, covalent binding of the cell adhesive protein, tropoelastin, without employing ...
