Facile synthesis of polypyrrole coated copper nanowires: a new concept to engineered core-shell structures
1Department of Polymer and Fiber Engineering, Auburn University, Auburn, AL 36849, USA.
Abstract:
Polypyrrole coated copper nanowires were synthesized in a one-pot manner in the presence of cupric precursor and pyrrole. They displayed ultra-high sensitivity as a potentiometric sensor with considerable environmental stability comparable to noble metals.
