Abstract

A method for coating functionalized poly(3,4-ethylenedioxythiophene) (PEDOT) on nonconductive substrates in aqueous solution allows the deposition of PEDOT thin layers on various substrates, including silica and polystyrene (PS) nanoparticles, siliceous mesocellular foam, and chitosan-alginate fibers. The surface property is tuned by controlling the monomer composition in the aqueous solutions. Using appropriate organic solvents to remove the PS cores of PEDOT-coated PS nanoparticles, hollow PEDOT particles with single holes and PEDOT capsules can be formed.
