“…Figure shows the FTIR spectra of blends with different constituent's percentages. The inset shows the FTIR spectrum of pure PANI, a peak at 3267 cm −1 , related to the NH bond of the secondary amine group, is observed . Furthermore, this peak does not change by increasing the percentage of MG in the blends.…”

In the present work, we describe the preparation and subsequent characterization of polymeric blends consisting of a monoglyceride (MG) synthesized from the Babassu's oil and the already commonly employed polyaniline (PAni). By following changes in the complex impedance of capacitor-like devices we observe that the presence of MG in the PAni/MG blends decreases electrical conductivity and that this decrease is a function of the content of MG in the blend, i.e., the blend with 30% of MG shows Z 0 about seven times greater than the one with 10% of MG. Fourier transform infrared measurements prove the formation of MG and the presence of secondary amine groups (NAH bonds) in the blends, which allow for the chemical doping of PAni by protonation, further studies are necessary to access the viability of employing this new material as active layer in electronic organic devices. Atomic force microscopy images show the formation of agglomerates due to the presence of MG. In addition, the polymeric mixture acts only as a blend, providing a physical interaction between different components.

“…However, there are still several challenges associated with the development of a miniaturized device that can rapidly and reliably monitor glucose in vivo, independent of blood oxygen concentration. Traditionally, the electrochemical [ 29 , 30 ] or chemical synthesis [ 31 , 32 , 33 ] methods are used to synthesize conducting polymer-based layers on the electrode surface. In the process of electrochemical synthesis, conducting polymers can be easily doped by various biomaterials, such as enzymes and proteins.…”

Abstract:In recent years, conducting polymer (CP) nanomaterials have been used in a variety of fields, such as in energy, environmental, and biomedical applications, owing to their outstanding chemical and physical properties compared to conventional metal materials. In particular, nanobiosensors based on CP nanomaterials exhibit excellent performance sensing target molecules. The performance of CP nanobiosensors varies based on their size, shape, conductivity, and morphology, among other characteristics. Therefore, in this review, we provide an overview of the techniques commonly used to fabricate novel CP nanomaterials and their biosensor applications, including aptasensors, field-effect transistor (FET) biosensors, human sense mimicking biosensors, and immunoassays. We also discuss prospects for state-of-the-art nanobiosensors using CP nanomaterials by focusing on strategies to overcome the current limitations.

“…Their applications in ordered ultrathin films with well-defined architecture using the Langmuir–Blodgett (LB) technique [14] or as sensing material for DNA [15] were also reported. Since PHAMs are known to show tuneable optoelectronic properties, so far most research activities have focused on the substitution effects on pendant heteroaryl units, the aromatic backbone [16,17], and the methylene bridges [18] where immediate influences on the band-gap positions and the band-gap sizes are achieved. Further modifications are known wherein the ratio between aromatic and quinonoidal systems influences the conductivity of the polymeric materials [19,20].…”

Copper Metallopolymer Catalyst for the Electrocatalytic Hydrogen Evolution Reaction (HER)

et al. 2019

Conjugated polymers with stabilizing coordination units for single-site catalytic centers are excellent candidates to minimize the use of expensive noble metal electrode materials. In this study, conjugated metallopolymer, POS[Cu], was synthesized and fully characterized by means of spectroscopical, electrochemical, and photophysical methods. The copper metallopolymer was found to be highly active for the electrocatalytic hydrogen generation (HER) in an aqueous solution at pH 7.4 and overpotentials at 300 mV vs. reversible hydrogen electrode (RHE). Compared to the platinum electrode, the obtained overpotential is only 100 mV higher. The photoelectrochemical tests revealed that the complexation of the conjugated polymer POS turned its intrinsically electron-accepting (p-type) properties into an electron-donor (n-type) with photocurrent responses ten times higher than the organic photoelectrode.
