This book chapter provides a comprehensive overview of conducting
polymer nanocomposites, including their types and potential applications. The article
highlights six types of conducting polymer nanocomposites, which include metal
nanoparticles, carbon nanotubes, graphene, metal oxide nanoparticles, nanocellulose,
and clay nanoparticles. Additionally, the chapter discusses the various methods
available for the synthesis of conducting polymer nanocomposites, which include in
situ polymerization, solution blending, in situ reduction, electrochemical deposition,
and layer-by-layer assembly. Overall, this chapter serves as a valuable resource for
researchers interested in the synthesis and application of conducting polymer
nanocomposites.
Keywords: Conducting polymer nanocomposites, Functional polymer, Fabrication techniques, Hybrid nanomaterials.
