Composite electrode materials based on conducting polymers loaded with metal nanostructures

The electrochemical and chemical methods for synthesizing conducting polymer-metal nanocomposite materials are considered as well as the main factors affecting the structure and electrochemical properties of these composites. The experimental data on the catalytic activity of conducting polymer-metal electrodes are analyzed in respect to several electrochemical reactions. The approaches to theoretical description of electrochemical processes on heterogeneous conducting polymer-metal electrodes are discussed and examples of experimental testing of applicability of the proposed the theoretical models are shown.
