Polypyrrole(PPy) nanorod networks with a high electrical conductivity of 40 S cm–1 have been obtained in a high yield by employing an ion association of heparin–methylene blue as a new morphology-directing agent. The polypyrrole nanorod networks are mixed with different content of carbon nanoparticl...
