Conducting polymers (CPs) have drawn considerable attention because of their economical importance, good environmental stability and electrical conductivity as well as due to their useful mechanical, optical and electronic properties. Some of the widest applications of conducting polymers include: they are used in electrostatic materials, conducting adhesives, electromagnetic shielding against electromagnetic interference (EMI), artificial nerves, aircraft structures, diodes, and transistors. This review covers some of the potential applications of these nanofibers and nanotubes in sensors, nanodiodes, field effect transistors, field emission and electrochromic displays, supercapacitors and energy storage, actuators, drug delivery, neural interfaces, and protein purification and its future prospects.
