| Description |
A novel one-pot method to synthesize palladium nanoparticles incorporated polypyrrole films (Pd–Ppy) is described. The films are
homogeneous with palladium particles and can be peeled from the electrode surface as a free standing films. Novelty of this procedure
is that the palladium particles are prepared and stabilized in presence of the surface-active dopant, dodecylbenzene sulphonic acid
sodium salt (NaDBSA), and are incorporated in to the polymer matrix along with dopant during the growth of the film. It is observed
that the incorporation of palladium is uniform and homogeneous. An unprecedented catalytic activity by these Pd–Ppy composite layers
in enhancing the rate of polymer deposition is observed. The films also electrocatalyze the oxidation of hydrazine more effectively than do
the pure Ppy films.
