Abstract
A novel method for the electropolymerization of polypyrrole/carbon nanotube composites on an electrically insulating, porous membrane is presented. In order to study the mechanisms relating to this process, different samples using carbon nanotubes with varying concentrations of functional groups were prepared and the morphology, electrical conductivity, thermal stability, and X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy (XPS) spectra of the resulting samples measured and used to confirm the explanation for the formation of these composite structures.
