Abstract
This paper presents a chemical and physical analysis of the surface of polypyrrole- coated electrically conductive textiles and a study of the adhesion of polypyrrole- coated nylon fibers to epoxy using the microbond test. The chemical composition of the surface of the conductive polymer coating was determined using x-ray photoelectron spectroscopy. Surface textures of polypyrrole-coated polyester, nylon, and glass textiles were observed using the scanning electron microscope, and dynamic contact angle measurements revealed the wetting character of the conductive coating. Thermo gravimetric analysis mass spectrometry was used to test the thermal stability of the polypyrrole-coated nylon fiber.Keywords
