Synthesis of polypyrrole-graft-polycaprolactone copolymers: New conductive nanocomposites

Abstract

A series of polypyrrole-graft-polycaprolactone copolymers were synthesized via oxidative polymerization of pyrrole and pyrrolic caprolactone macromonomers. The method permits to prepare graft copolymers with different nanostructures ranging from pure conductive polypyrrole to insulating polycaprolactone.
