ABSTRACT
Versatile nanostructures of conducting polymers are highly relevant based on unique properties, including electrical, optical, and thermal, with changes in morphology. This contribution reports a facile and reproducible synthesis approach for the design of conducting polymer nanostructures from zero- to three-dimensional composites. Two polymerization steps, namely, self-assembly-directed and interface thin layer-templated polymerizations in this synthesis, were kinetically controlled to fabricate such nanostructures directly. The uniquely designed bicontinuous nanoreactor offers an easy synthesis technique for fabricating 3D multifunctional conducting polymer composites. Self-assembly-directed polymerization could be controlled to form nanorods and further directed to form nanobowl/hollow spherical structures. The interface thin layer template process was tuned to produce hollow spherical and 2D film nanostructures. Kinetic control of polymerization was able to provide access to unprecedented nanostructures of the conducting polymers ranging from DNA origami to gecko-inspired nanostructures, with potential applications in drug delivery, energy storage, and adhesive materials. For example, this is the first conducting polymer material that can demonstrate similar adhesiveness (around 8 N/cm2) to gecko finger hairs.
