Abstract

Currently, conducting polymers such as Polypyrrole (PPy), have been extensively interested due to their
interesting features of conductivity, low-cost fabrication, and stability under ambient conditions and at high temperature. Herein, polypyrrole was polymerized on the surface of cellulose fibers (CFs) by using a sequence of fiber impregnation in FeCl3 solutions and re-dispersion in a pyrrole solution via in situ chemical polymerization of monomer-pyrrole. The structure, morphology, and thermal properties were investigated. The results revealed the uniformly of PPy on the surface of CFs. Moreover, conductivity of 184×10-4 Sꞏcm−1 was obtained from a composites sheet of CFs:PPy with the PPy of 0.20 ml. Also, the decreasing of dielectric and impedance in CFs:PPy composites sheet can be observed as the increasing of CFs:PPy ratio. Chemical polymerization has been very successful in the production of composite materials of conductivity polymers with CFs.
