We present a first-principles density functional theory study focused on how the chemical and electronic properties of polyaniline are adjusted by introducing suitable substituents on a polymer backbone. Analyses of the obtained energy barriers, reaction energies and minimum energy paths indicate that the chemical reactivity of the polyaniline derivatives is significantly enhanced by protonic a...

The driving idea and the main objective of this synthetic work is study physicochemical factors such as dielectric constant solvent, polarizability chains Gap energy conductive polymers, these characteristics condition their properties. electrical electrochemical. We focused our on polyaniline, two methods are presented: chemical polymerization electropolymerization with emphasis theoretical as...

Polyaniline is a widely studied conducting polymer and is a useful material in its bulk and thin film form for many applications, because of its excellent optical and electrical properties. Pristine and iodine doped polyaniline thin films were prepared by a.c. and rf plasma polymerization techniques separately for the comparison of their optical and electrical properties. Doping of iodine was e...

An extensive study of Fischer-Tropsch synthesis (FTS) on alumina-supported cobalt catalysts with different amounts of cobalt is reported. Up to 40 wt % of cobalt, is added to the catalysts by impregnation method. The effect of the cobalt loading on the reducibility of the cobalt oxide species, dispersion of the cobalt, average clusters size, water-gas shift (WGS) activity and activity and s...

Monodisperse silica-polyaniline core-shell nanoparticles with an average diameter of 26 nm were synthesized by in-situ polymerisation of aniline monomers adsorbed on the silica surface through electrostatic interactions.

Cobalt is a well-established inducer of hypoxia-like responses, which can cause gene modulation at the hypoxia inducible factor pathway to induce erythropoietin transcription. Cobalt salts are orally active, inexpensive, and easily accessible. It is an attractive blood doping agent for enhancing aerobic performance. Indeed, recent intelligence and investigations have confirmed cobalt was being ...

Conducting polymers, because of their special properties, are used to introduce conductive polymeric composites. Also, clays have recently been used for preparation of polymer composites with enhanced mechanical and thermal properties. The aim of this work is to study the synergetic effect of the co-presence of conducting polyaniline and montmorillonite in the polyethylene matrix. Polyethylene ...

This listing of the class of cobalt and cobalt compounds that release cobalt ions in vivo (as defined below) supersedes the previous listing of cobalt sulfate in the Report on Carcinogens. The compound cobalt sulfate was first listed in the Eleventh Report on Carcinogens in 2004 as reasonably anticipated to be a human carcinogen based on sufficient evidence of carcinogenicity in experimental an...

A new monomer, which incorporates both aniline and methacrylamide functional groups, was shown to possess orthogonal polymerisation behaviour to produce conjugated polyaniline suitable for a wide range of applications.
