Synthesis of polypyrrole/tannin/cetyltrimethylammonium bromide nanocomposites for dopamine detection

Polypyrrole-Tannin (PPy/TA) nanocomposite was prepared in the presence of cationic surfactant, cetyltrimethylammonium bromide (CTAB) using the chemical polymerization method. The resulting PPy/TA/CTAB nanocomposite was used to modify screen printed carbon electrode (SPCE) for developing a dopamin...
