Ajayan A, Rajan L, Prakash S, Ismail YA. Macromolecular sensing motors from conducting polymers: Polyaniline/methylcellulose composites as stable current sensing supercapacitors. Int J Biol Macromol 2024; 279:135312. [PMID: 39236960 DOI: 10.1016/j.ijbiomac.2024.135312] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 04/30/2024] [Revised: 08/19/2024] [Accepted: 09/02/2024] [Indexed: 09/07/2024]
Abstract
Sensing motors and supercapacitors are pivotal in empowering smart systems, honing energy management, and facilitating the seamless integration of responsive electronics. Harnessing the electrochemistry of methylcellulose-polyaniline (MC/PANI) composites, this research delves into their potential applications as reactive current sensing supercapacitors with single connectivity. The electrochemical traits of pristine polyaniline (PANI) and MC/PANI composites were analyzed and assessed for their potential applications in sensors and energy storage devices. With a specific capacitance of 300Fg-1, the MC/PANI_B3 composite-based device retained 87.01 % capacitance after 2000 cycles. Besides, based on electrical energy as the sensing parameter, the composite exhibited augmented cathodic and anodic current sensitivity of 8.77 mJmA-1 and -8.86 mJmA-1, respectively. The ameliorated supercapacitor and current sensing parameters of MC/PANI_B3 are ascribed to the percolation threshold content of the conducting phase, which is endowed with optimal hydrogen bond-mediated interactions with methylcellulose (MC), thus confers an expanded chain conformation.

Abstract
The electrochemical reaction in liquid electrolytes of conducting polymers, carbon nanotubes, graphenes, among other materials, replicates the active components (macromolecular electro-chemical motors, ions and solvent) and volume variation of the sarcomere in any natural muscles during actuation, allowing the development of electro-chemo-mechanical artificial muscles. Materials, reactions and artificial muscles have been used as model materials, model reactions and model devices of the muscles from ectotherm animals. We present in this perspective the experimental results and a quantitative description of the thermal influence on the reaction extension and energetic achievements of those muscular models using different experimental methodologies. By raising the temperature for 40 °C keeping the extension of the muscular movement the cooperative actuation of the macromolecular motors harvest, saving chemical energy, up to 60% of the reaction energy from the thermal environment. The synergic thermal influence on either, the reaction rate (Arrhenius), the conformational movement rates of the motors (ESCR model) and the diffusion coefficients of ions across polymer matrix (WLF equation) can support the physical chemical foundations for the selection by nature of ectotherm muscles. Macromolecular motors act, simultaneously, as electro-chemo-mechanical and thermo-mechanical transducers. Technological and biological perspectives are presented.

Abstract
We introduce a novel condensing vapor phase polymerization (CVPP) strategy for depositing microtubes of the conducting polymer polypyrrole; these serve as one-dimensional hollow microstructures for storing electrochemical energy. In CVPP, water droplets are structure-directing templates for polypyrrole microtubes. Water vapor condensation and polymerization occur simultaneously-conformal coatings of microtubes deposit on porous substrates such as hard carbon fiber paper or glass fiber filter paper. A mechanistic evolution of the microtubular morphology is proposed and tested based on the mass transport of water and monomer vapors as well as on the reaction stoichiometry. A coating of PPy microtubes is characterized by a high reversible capacitance of 342 F g-1 at 5 mV s-1 throughout 5000 cycles of cyclic voltammetry and a low sheet resistance of 70.2 Ω □-1. The open tubular structure is controlled in situ during synthesis and leads to electrodes that exhibit electrochemical stability at high scanning rates up to 250 mV s-1 retaining all stored charge, even after extensive cycling at 25 mV s-1.
