Keywords:Polypyrrole, Silica, Electrophoretic Display

We have prepared organic conducting nanocomposite particles that utilize polypyrrole as conducting parts and small silica particles as dispersants. We found that the polypyrrole-silica nanocomposite particles can be utilized as display elements for electrophoretic display and black inks for printed electronics due to their high colloid stability.
