The synthesis of polypyrrole (PPy)/AgCl nanocomposites with their size ranging around 70–100 nm are achieved by using magnetic ionic liquid as the oxidant in the interface polymerization system. The interface polymerization leads to the formation of uniform and unaggregated nanocomposites with a relatively narrow size distribution confined to submicrometer‐sized domains. The morphology and structure of the nanocomposites are characterized by transmission electron microscopy (TEM), Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectroscopy, Raman spectroscopy, and X‐ray diffraction (XRD). The potential application of PPy/AgCl nanocomposites as a H 2 O 2 biosensor is also reported. Copyright © 2010 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
