Abstract:
Hydroxymethyl-poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene)(PEDOT-OH) nanospheres self-assembled using physical blowing method, which continually used a syringe, were successfully formed through aqueous solution polymerization under the oxidative initiators. The effect of blowing on the morphological properties of PEDOT-OH was precisely evaluated based on the different amount of initiator. The concentration of ammonium persulfate might be a driving force in the self-assembly process to create the PEDOT-OH nanospheres. The electrical and electrochemical properties of the resulting nanospheres were also characterized using four-point probe and cyclic voltammetry.
