Disposable Electrospun Electrodes Based on Conducting Nanofibers

Abstract: A new approach for the fabrication of disposable electrochemical surfaces is presented. Conducting fibers have been produced by a two-step process. Firstly, a fine web mat composed of nylon-6 and ferric chloride fibers (with diameters of about 200 nm) were electrospun on a flat collector. Afterwards, the electrospun mat was exposed to pyrrole vapor under controlled dry atmosphere until each nylon thread was fully coated with a conducting polypyrrole layer. The conducting fiber mat was finally integrated within… Show more

“…28 Accordingly, several strategies have been proposed, 29,30 including coaxial spinning, 31,32 polymerization on as-spun fibers surface, 5,8,33 or the addition of a second polymer to the feed solution, which supports the fibers formation. 34−36 A proper choice of the supporting polymer would then allow its selective rinsing to afford fibers of the pure conjugated polymer.…”

“…The resulting nanoelectrode sensor was used to detect changes in pH resulting from the level of protonation in the polymer backbone. PPy nanofibers have been formed by the electrospinning of nylon fibers, followed by the vapor deposition of pyrrole to form PPy [28] (Figure 14.3). Mats of the coaxial fibers were used for the amperometric detection of phosphate anions with applications in water-quality monitoring, where the limit of detection was found to be 1.2 mM with the suggestion of good long-term storage stability.…”
