Abstract

See full text

A method is provided for preparing electrically conductive polymer and cellulose nanocomposite particles and nanocomposite materials. Cellulose microparticles coated with a conductive polymer are added to an acid solution for initiating an acid hydrolysis reaction for a prescribed time interval to form conductive polymer coated cellulose nanoparticles. After quenching the acid hydrolysis reaction, the nanoparticles are separated to obtain a colloidal solution of conductive nanoparticles. The conductive nanoparticles may be subsequently formed into a solid nanocomposite material such as a conductive film. Transparent conductive films may be prepared by forming thin layers having a thickness on a micron or submicron scale.
