Insights into properties, synthesis and emerging applications of polypyrrole-based composites, and future prospective: A review

Open access

Abstract

Recent advancements in polymer science and engineering underscore the importance of creating sophisticated soft materials characterized by well-defined structures and adaptable properties to meet the demands of emerging applications. The primary objective of polymeric composite technology is to enhance the functional utility of materials for high-end purposes. Both the inherent qualities of the materials and the intricacies of the synthesis process play pivotal roles in advancing their properties and expanding their potential applications. Polypyrrole (PPy)-based composites, owing to their distinctive properties, hold great appeal for a variety of applications. Despite the limitations of PPy in its pure form, these constraints can be effectively overcome through hybridization with other materials. This comprehensive review thoroughly explores the existing literature on PPy and PPy-based composites, providing in-depth insights into their synthesis, properties, and applications. Special attention is given to the advantages of intrinsically conducting polymers (ICPs) and PPy in comparison to other ICPs. The impact of doping anions, additives, and oxidants on the properties of PPy is also thoroughly examined. By delving into these aspects, this overview aims to inspire researchers to delve into the realm of PPy-based composites, encouraging them to explore new avenues for flexible technology applications.

  • The hydrogen sensing mechanism on the surface of PANi in its emeraldine (EM) form proceeds through hydrogen adsorption and hydroxide ion desorption.

    “The hydrogen sensing mechanism on the surface of PANi in its emeraldine (EM) form proceeds through hydrogen adsorption and hydroxide ion desorption.”

    From Dual-function aerogel electrocatalyst enabling efficient hydrogen production and ambient-temperature hydrogen detection (2026) · cites this paper as [52]

    The Sensors section discusses hydrogen detection by Ag/ZnO and lists a Pd/PPy hydrogen sensor, but neither passage describes sensing on PANi in its emeraldine form. Searches for emeraldine, hydrogen adsorption, and hydroxide-ion desorption found no passage addressing the claimed mechanism; page numbers were unavailable in our copy. (LLM, conf=0.74)

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
