Abstract :
The synthesis of polypyrrole by polymerization in vapor phase is reported. To enhance the conductance, imogolite is introduced. Imogolite is a nanometer-sized tubular structured material whose large surface offers considerable space for adsorption of polypyrrole. The change in conductance of polypyrrole on imogolite surface when irradiated with UV-light during polymerization is also measured.
