A paradigm shift has taken place in the fabrication of conducting polymer from bulky features with micron size to ultrafine features with nanometer range. Conducting polymer nanomaterials are an important class of functional materials with great potential for technologies including energy, environment, electronic device, catalyst, biotechnology because of their unique properties. Therefore, fabrication of conducting polymer nanomaterial plays a role of platform technology in order to expand the span of their applications. In this presentation, recent achievements in the synthetic methodology of conducting polymer nanomaterials have been reviewed in the viewpoint of soft template method, hard template method and template-free method. It also details the morphological spectrum of conducting polymer nanomaterials such as nanoparticle, core/shell nanostructure, hollow nanosphere, mesoporous nanomaterial, nanorod, nanofiber and nanotube. In addition, chemical & biosensor applications of conducting polymer nanomaterials will be presented with respect to specific target materials as well as sensor performance. |
