synthesis of polypyrrole coated sno2-zno electrospun nanofibers via vapor phase polymerization method

this paper reports the synthesis of polypyrrole coated sno2/znoelectrospunnanofibers via vapor phase polymerization method. in order to prepare one dimensional (sno2-zno)/polypyrrole with the core sheath structure, first sno2-zno composite nanofibers were synthesized via electrospinning method followed by adsorption of fe3+ on the surface of the sno2-zno nanofibers and finally pyrrole was polymerized on the surface of the fibers. the results of simultaneous thermal analysis (sta), x-ray diffraction (xrd), scanning electron microscopy (sem) and transmission electron microscopy (tem) of the nanofibers confirmed the success of synthesis of (sno2-zno)/polypyrrole core sheath compound.
