Preparation and physical properties of polypyrrole / zeolite composites

Polypyrrole (PPy′)/zeolite composites were synthesized via chemical oxidation of pyrrole in the presence of zeolite. FeCl3 was used as an oxidant with the FeCl3-to-pyrrole molar ratio (MR) equal to 1. The zeolite contents were 0%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20% of the total weight of PPy′. For comparison, pur...
