Abstract
A method has been developed to produce a carbon nanotube/conducting polymer nano-composite through in-situ polymerization of pyrrole in the carbon nanotube template. The nano-composites of carbon nanotube and polypyrrole have been characterized by SEM, TEM, XRD, Raman Scattering. The thermal stability was studied by TGA (Thermal Gravity Analysis). The measurements of conductivity and magnetic susceptibility of the composites have been studied.
