The simple preparation of a conducting and transparent polypyrrole film (1990)
Journal Article
Ratcliffe, N. M., & Ratcliffe, N. M. (1990). The simple preparation of a conducting and transparent polypyrrole film. Synthetic Metals, 38(1), 87-92. https://doi.org/10.1016/0379-6779%2890%2990070-2

The preparation of transparent, c. 50 nm thick, conducting (c. 5.0 S cm-1) films of polypyrrole onto non-conducting substrates, e.g. acrylic, polyester, glass is described. The coating was produced by a dip process into a colloidal dispersion of poly... Read More about The simple preparation of a conducting and transparent polypyrrole film.

Polypyrrole-based sensor for hydrazine and ammonia (1990)
Journal Article
Ratcliffe, N. M. (1990). Polypyrrole-based sensor for hydrazine and ammonia. Analytica Chimica Acta, 239(C), 257-262. https://doi.org/10.1016/S0003-2670%2800%2983859-3

An ultra-thin layer of polypyrrole can be coated on non-conducting substrates, e.g., acrylic, by dip coating into a colloidal suspension of polypyrrole. This thin coating reversibly combines with low concentrations of ammonia or hydrazine with a conc... Read More about Polypyrrole-based sensor for hydrazine and ammonia.
