Abstract
Conducting polypyrrole films with electrical conductivity higher than 400 S/cm have been prepared by the simple electrochemical oxidation method in aqueous solution with high electrolyte concentration. It has been also found that the conventional surfactants can be used successfully to prepare the high quality polypyrrole film.
