Inorganic Nanostructures on Surfaces Using Micellar Diblock Copolymer Templates... 

Electrochemical polymerization provides a convenient approach to fabricate CNTs/CP nanocomposites [46-53], Using such a strategy, the morphology and properties of the nanocomposites can be controlled by the electropolymerization conditions, such as the applied potential or current density. Ajayan and co-workers have reported the electrochemical oxidation of aniline in H SO on the CNTs electrode to fabricate CNT/PANl composites [46]. Chen et al. fabricated CNT/PPy nanocomposites, the first example of anionic CNTs acting as the dopant of a CP [47]. Their results showed that PPy was xmiformly coated on the surface of individual CNTs by electrolysis at a low apphed potential for a short time, rendering them potential applications in nanoelectronic devices. Another kind of CNTs/CP composite nanostructures, e.g., CNTs as inorganic fillers in CP matrices [54] can be prepared by a template-directed electropolymerization method. (Figure 13.3)...
