Protonation of polyaniline base with lightly sulfonated polystyrene in polar solvents such its dimethyl sulfoxide and N-methyl-2-py~olidone was investigated by UV-Vis absorption spectra. As the molar ratio of sulfonated polystyrenelpolyaniline increases, the conversion from polyaniline base form to salt form is observed owing 10 incrensed protonation. The isosbestic point clearly shows that qui...

The nanostructured polyaniline (NSPANI) and its gold nano composite (GNP) with controlled size distribution were developed using structure directing agents (SDA). The nano structure of polyaniline were investigated by UV-Visible spectroscopy, transmission electron microscopy (TEM), dynamic light scattering (DLS), fourrier transform spectroscopy (FTIR), X-ray crystallography and scanning electro...

Abstract. The progress of the oxidative polymerization of aniline with ammonium peroxydisulfate in aqueous medium has been monitored in situ by attenuated total reflection Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The growth of polyaniline film at the crystal surface as well as changes proceeding in the surrounding aqueous phase is reflected in the spectra. It has been shown that in aqueous solu...

High-energy ion beam irradiation of the polymers is a good technique to modify the properties such as electrical conductivity, structural behaviour and mechanial properties. Polyaniline thin films doped with hydrochloric acid (HCl) were prepared by oxidation of ammonium persulphate. The effect of Swift Heavy Ions irradiation on the electrical and structural properties of polyaniline has been me...

We fabricated hydrogenated amorphous silicon/polyaniline n–i–p heterojunction solar cells incorporating a doped, hole conducting polyaniline (PANI) layer. The cells were prepared by spin-casting differing polyaniline dispersions corresponding to film conductivities ranging from 10 2 to 10 S/m. The open-circuit voltages VOC of the cells ranged from 0.5–0.7 V. While these open-circuit voltages ar...

Polyaniline titanotungstate (PATiW) was synthesized by the sol-gel method. Adsorption isotherm studies of Cs from aqueous solution are described. Elemental Composition, chemical solubility, ion-exchange capacity (IEC) and pH titration are studied. Distribution coefficients (Kd) for ten metal ions have been determined. It was found that the polyaniline titanotungstate has high affinity and high ...

Conductive polypyrrole–polyaniline/TiO2 nanocomposites (PPy–PANI/TiO2) were prepared by in situ oxidative copolymerization of pyrrole and aniline monomers in the presence of TiO2. For comparison studies, polypyrrole/TiO2 (PPy/TiO2) and polyaniline/TiO2 (PANI/TiO2) were also prepared. The samples were characterized by X-ray diffraction, transmission electron microscopy, UV-vis diffuse reflectanc...

H(2)SO(4) doped polyaniline (PANI) has synthesized by chemical oxidation method. The prepared Polyaniline were annealed at 150 °C, 200 °C and 250 °C for 30 min in vacuum. Crystal size, percentage of crystallinity, total percentage of crystallinity properties of untreated and heat treated PANI samples were studied by using X-ray diffraction pattern. The molecular structure of untreated and heat ...

Cyclic voltammetric studies were carried out on the deposition of polyaniline on pure aluminum from oxalic acid solution with and without different anions (CO3, SO3, SO4, DBS) and contribution of these anions to lyaniline film formation was investigated. Corrosion behavior of polyaniline coated aluminum in oxalic acid solution with and without different anions (CO3, SO3, SO4, DBS) has been inve...

Incorporating the characteristics of the single-layer graphene nanoribbon and the polyaniline molecule, we theoretically design a two-dimensional molecular device and investigate its transport properties by applying nonequilibrium Green's functions in combination with density-functional theory. The calculated results reveal that the arrangements of frontier molecular orbitals and the energy gap...
