Abstract
Tubular polypyrrole (PPy) could be synthesized by in situ doping polymerization in the presence of β-naphthalene sulfonic acid (NSA) as dopant. The resultant tubular PPy–NSA not only exhibits high room temperature conductivity (ςRT = 10 S/cm) but is also soluble in m-cresol. The molecular structure of PPy–NSA is identical to the characteristic structure of PPy synthesized by a conventional method. It has been demonstrated that NSA dopant with large molecular size and plate–lebe structure is a key factor to control formation of tubular PPy–NSA. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.
