In this study, gelatin can be polymerized into PEDOT/PSS polymers on indium tin oxide (ITO)-coated glass. PEDOT/PSS/gelatin layer on ITO-coated glass significantly decreases electrochemical impedance spectroscopy (EIS) and increases charge delivery capacity relative to the gelatin layer and bare ITO- coated glass, comparable to the PEDOT/PSS layer on ITO-coated glass. PEDOT/PSS/gelatin layer on ITO- coated glass enhances pheochromocytoma (PC 12) cell affinity, possesses a high biocompatibility and promotes PC 12 cell growth by delivery of electrical stimulation. These results suggest that gelatin can be incorporated into the PEDOT/PSS polymers through electrochemical polymerization and the PEDOT/PSS/gelatin layer on ITO-coated glass possesses high electrochemical and biological activities.展开更多

Composites of Maghnite-H, a Montmorillonite sheet silicate clay, exchanged with protons, and Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) were prepared by in situ chemical polymerization of the 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene,...Composites of Maghnite-H, a Montmorillonite sheet silicate clay, exchanged with protons, and Poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) were prepared by in situ chemical polymerization of the 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene, without the use of solvent or oxidant. The effect of changing monomer/clay ratio was studied and the resultant composite structures were characterized by Inferred spectroscopy, 27Al and 13CSolid-State NMR spectroscopy, scanning electron microscopy and powder X-ray diffraction. All analyses are consistent with a structure were the polymer is (partially) intercalated into the clay structure, which in favourable cases lead to exfoliation. The presence of the clay in the polymer leads to a desired increase in thermal stability as witnessed by thermogravimetry.展开更多

The composite electrode was prepared by cyclic voltammetry copolymerization with LiClO_(4)-water as the supporting electrolyte. The peak current of rutin and luteolin on the composite electrode gradually decreased or even disappeared with the increase in the positive potential limit. After incubation in NaOH–ethanol solution with a volume ratio of 1:1, the composite electrodes prepared at positive potential limit greater than 1.5 V exhibited enhanced differential pulse voltammetry peak currents, reduced charge transfer resistance, larger effective specific surface area and higher electron transfer rate constant. The composite electrode prepared in the potential range of 0–1.7 V showed optimal electrocatalytic performance. The X-ray photoelectron spectroscopy results indicated that the content of –SO_(2)/–SO and –C=N– groups in the composite film increased significantly after incubation. Further, the Raman spectra and Fourier transform infrared spectra revealed that the thiophene ring structure changed from benzene-type to quinone-type, and the quinone-type pyrrole ring was formed. The electrocatalytic mechanism of the composite film was proposed based on the experimental results and further verified by Density Functional Theory calculation.展开更多

The surface morphology of Pt implants with and without the PEDOT/CNT coating was studied using scanning electron microscopy (SEM). After 6 weeks post-implantation, the expression of laminin (vascular endothelial marker) and neuronal nuclei (NeuN, neuronal marker) were evaluated by immnohistochemistry. It is revealed that the obvious improvements of the surface density of blood vessels and neurons aound the Pt implants with the coating, which were evidenced by laminin and NeuN staining in the zone within the distance of 150 μm to the implant interface. These results suggest the PEDOT/CNT composite films can improve the biocompatibility of the Pt electrodes while it is implanted in brain.展开更多

The biocompatible PEDOTM matrix was prepared facilely by the one-step electrochemical deposition technique in lithium perehlorate aqueous solutions. AO was dip-coated on the surface of the biocompatible PEDOTM matrix. The mixture of Nafion-SWCNT was dip-cast onto the surface of AO layer when it was obtained by blending Nation solution and SWCNT dispersion together in a volume ratio of 1:1. The prepared PEDOTM/AO/Nafion-SWCNT biosensor was used for the voltammetric determination of VC, which exhibited the good linear range (4.0 ~ 10-s-3 x 10-s mol/L), low detection limit (13 I^mol/L), pronounced sensitivity (1.4072 mA (mmol/L) i cm 2), high bioaftinity (low apparent Michaelis-Menten constant), good stability (good repeatability), high specificity (good anti-interference ability) coupled with the good reliability and feasibility (the determination of VC in commercial juices). Meanwhile, the good aqueous solubility and the low onset oxidation potential of EDOTM will be more beneficial to the application in biosensor field compared to 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene. Moreover, the good biocompatibility of PEDOTM matrix and high selectivity of Nation-SWCNT films also provide a promising platform for the development of biosensing devices.展开更多

In this method, the aqueous solution of cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) instead of any organic solvent was used. FeC13 acted as a source of FeIII for the formation of γ-Fe2O3 and as an oxidant for the polymerization of 3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene (EDOT). The bowl-shaped morphology of PEDOT/γ-Fe2O3 composites was strongly influenced by the concentration of CTAB, FeCl2, ammonia solution and the reaction temperature. The saturation magnetization of PEDOT/γ-Fe2O3 micro-bowls increased with the increase of FeC12 concentration and reached 6.20 AmE/kg at the FeCl2 concentration of 0.30 mol/L. The conductivity of the PEDOT/γ-Fe2O3 composites was in the range of 101 S/cm. The electrical and magnetic sources of PEDOT/γ-Fe2O3 micro-bowls were confirmed by SEM-EDX, TEM, XRD and XPS spectra. And the possible formation mechanism of PEDOT//7:Fe203 was proposed.展开更多
