Abstract:Herein, the nanofabrication and characterization of new conductive materials, PANI-CoPc-fur (1) ((PANI = polyaniline and CoPc-fur = tetra-4-(furan-2-methylthiophthalocyaninato)-Co(II)) and PANI-CoPc-fur-f-MWCNTs (2) ( f-MWCNTs = carboxylic acid-functionalized multiwalled carbon nanotubes), are reported. Subsequently, an electrospun nanofiber (ENF) composite of 2, encapsulated with a poly(vinyl acetate) shell, was fabricated. The resultant core−shell nanoconjugated fibers, ENFs-2, were adsorbed on a glassy carb… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
