Structure of composites prepared via polypyrrole synthesis in supercritical CO2 on microporous polyethylene

The synthesis of polypyrrole in supercritical carbon dioxide in the presence of the microporous polyethylene has been studied. Formation of polymer composites based on polypyrrole and polyethylene has been demonstrated. The structure of the test samples has been investigated by vibrational spectroscopy, SAXS, and atomic force and scanning electron microscopy. It has been discovered that the oxidized structure of polypyrrole forms during the synthesis under supercritical conditions.
