This paper presents drug release properties of active drug delivery system (DDS) using volume change of polypyrrole (PPy). The incorporation of various chemical substances into the PPy and controlling its release with the externally applied voltage to the PPy are possible. In order to confirm possibility for drug delivery system qualitatively, indicator(phenol red) was examined as a dopant of PPy. The applied voltage to the PPy electrode was set to -2 V and this negative voltage makes the anionic indicator released in saline solution. After qualitative analysis, in order to confirm quantitative drug release characteristic of PPy, salicylate which is one of the aspirin substance was used as a dopant of PPy. As a result, the salicylate release characteristics with time was thoroughly investigated while varying the electrode area, polymerization time, the applied voltage for drug release. Based on these quantitative results, a preliminary experiment was carried out to check the feasibility of the PPy applicable to the neuronal system.

In continuous research of detecting highly toxic chemical warfare agents to ensure preparedness for the future battlefield, flexible and wearable sensor platforms with high sensitivity are still demanding. Herein we demonstrate a facile fabrication of polypyrrole-based chemiresistors on cellulose paper for the detection of nerve gas simulants. In order to optimize electrical properties of sensor platform, conducting polymer made of polypyrrole were first synthesized on flexible cellulose paper and interdigitated electrodes were formed thereon. Following confirmation of polypyrrole and/or oxime moiety through FT-IR analyses, electrical characteristics were measured in the various ratio of monomers between simple pyrrole and oxime-modified one. Typically for the optimized chemiresistor(2:8 molar ratio of simple pyrrole and oxime-modified one), eleven species of chemical warfare agents were examined and enhanced conductivity(10⁴~10⁵ order) was observed for three simulants(diethyl cyanophosphonate, diisopropyl fluorophosphonate and diethyl chlorophosphonate), which was mainly attributed to intermolecular hydrogen bonding, while no significant responses was recorded against sixteen common volatile organic chemicals.

[ $PPy^+DBS^-$ ] 복합체는 유화중합에 의해 제조되었고 이때 iron(III) chloride($FeCl_3$)는 개시제로, dodecyl benzene sulfonic acid(DBSA)는 계면활성제 및 도판트로 사용되었다. Poly(2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (PPO)는 chlorosulfonic acid(CSA)를 사용하여 설폰화되었고 양극은 $PPy^+DBS^-$ 복합체, 도전제 그리고 바인더로 구성되며 이때 바인더로 PPO와 설폰화된 poly (2,6-dimethyl-1,4-phenylene oxide) (SPPO)를 사용하였다. $PPy^+DBS^-/SPPO$ 양극은 $PPy^+DBS^-/PPO$에 비해 약 50% 높은 충 방전 성능을 나타내었는데 이는 SPPO가 바인더뿐만 아니라 도판트로 작용했기 때문이다. 더욱이 바인더로 사용된 고분자의 설폰화는 전도성 고분자와의 coulombic attraction을 유발시켜 두 상간의 혼화성을 증가시켰을 뿐만 아니라 양극과 전해질 사이의 접촉면적을 증가시켜 전기화학적으로 우수한 성능을 나타나게 했다.

This study compared dip-coating and in situ polymerization methods for the development of nanofiber-based E-textile using polypyrrole. Nanofiber webs were fabricated by electrospinning an aqueous poly (vinyl alcohol) (PVA) solution. Subsequently, the PVA nanofiber web underwent thermal treatment to improve water resistance. Dip-coating and in situ polymerization methods were used to deposit polypyrrole on the surfaces of the nanofiber web. An FE-SEM analysis was also conducted to examine specimen surface characteristics along with EDS and FT-IR that analyzed the chemical bonding between polypyrrole and specimens. The line resistance and sheet resistance of the treated specimens were measured. Finally, an electrocardiogram (ECG) was measured with textile sensors made of the polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs. The polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by dip-coating dissolved in the dip-coating solution and indicated damage to the nanofibers. However, in the case of in situ polymerization, polypyrrole nanoparticles were deposited on the surface and inter-web structure of the PVA nanofiber web. The resistance measurements indicated that polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by in situ polymerization with an average sheet resistance of 5.3 k(Ω/□). Polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs fabricated by dip-coating showed an average sheet resistance of 57.3 k(Ω/□). Polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofibers fabricated by in situ polymerization showed a lower line and sheet resistance; in addition, they detected the electrical activity of the heart during ECG measurements. The electrodes made from polypyrrole-deposited PVA nanofiber webs by in situ polymerization showed the best performance for sensing ECG signals among the evaluated specimens.

In the case of immobilizing of glucose oxidase into polypyrrole (PPy) using electrosynthesis, the glucose oxidase (GOx) forms a coordinate bond with the polymer's backbone. However, because of intrinsic insulation and net-chain of the enzyme, the charge transfer and mass transport are obstructed during the film growth. Therefore, the film growth is dull. We synthesized the enzyme electrode by electropolymerization added some organic solvent, A formative seeds of film growth is delayed by adding the solvent. The delay is induced by radical transfer between the solvent and pyrrole monomer. In the case of adding ethanol, the radical transfer shares the contribution of dopant between electrolyte anion and GOx polyanion. This may lead to increase amount of immobilized the enzyme in ppy. However, adding tetrahydrofuran (THF), the radical transfer is more brisk, resulting in short chained polymer. Therefore, the doping level is lowered and then amount of immobilized of enzyme is decreased. For the UV absorption spectra of synthetic solution before synthesis and after, in the case of ethanol added, the optical density was slightly decreased for the GOx peaks. It suggests amount of GOx in the solution was decreased and amount of GOx in the film was increased. We established qualitatively that amount of immobilization can be improved by adding a little ethanol in the synthetic solution. It is due to radical transfer reaction. The radical transfer shares the contribution of dopant between small and fast electrolyte anion and big and slow GOx polyanion.

염료감응 태양전지의 전극 물질로 금속산화물인 이산화티타늄$(TiO_2)$를 사용하고, 감응제로 malachite green oxalate, basic blue3, rhodamine B, bromocresol purple 염료를 사용할 때 광전환 효율을 높이고 안정성을 향상시키기 위하여 갖추어야될 염료의 전기화학적 특성과 분광학적 특성을 조사하였다. 기준전극에 대한 염료의 산화전위와 흡수파장을 전자볼트 단위로 환산한 값을 더하여 들뜬 상태를 얻었다. $TiO_2$전극의 평활전위$(E_{fb})$를 결정하여 전도띠 끝 준위$(E_{c,s})$를 계산하였으며, 이를 염료의 들뜬 상태와 비교함으로써 합선 전류$(J_{sc})$를 향상시킬 수 있도록 염료가 갖추어야 할 특성을 알아내었다. 또한 폴리피롤 전도성 고분자를 입혀 $TiO_2$의 결함자리에서 전도띠에 있는 전자가 산화된 염료와 재결합하는 것과 $TiO_2$필름의 균열에 의한 염료의 전극반응을 방지함으로써 광전류의 안정성을 향상시킨 결과를 얻었다.
