-Reactions of smectite with phenols were investigated to understand the role of clay minerals in abating transport of these organic pollutants to ground water. Sorption of o-methylphenol, o-chlorophenol, and m-methylphenol by the clay with different exchange cations was accomplished by passing phenol vapors in a slow stream of air or nitrogen through the samples. The resulting products, extract...

the conducting polymer films have been widely applied in the field of electrochemistry owing to their goodstability, permselectivity, unique physical and chemical properties. a novel nano-au/poly (4-aminobenzoicacid) (paba) film modified carbon paste electrode was fabricated for sensitive detection of acetaminophenin this paper. the paba film and nano-au/paba film were characterized by scanning...

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...

The Pd-complex-catalyzed polymerization of 2,7-dibromo-9,9-dihexylfluorene, 2,5-dibromo-3-hexylthiophene, and 1,4-dibromo-2,5-dioctyloxybenzene with 3,5-diethynyl-4-methoxy[1,1';4',1'']terphenyl afforded poly(aryleneethynylene)s (PAEs), Polymer-1, Polymer-2, and Polymer-3, respectively; the Pd-complexcatalyzed polymerization of the same with 1,3-diethynylbenzene afforded PAEs, Polymer-4, Polyme...

Horseradish peroxidase catalyzed the H2O2-dependent oxidation and polymerization of acetaminophen. Six acetaminophen polymers were isolated from horseradish peroxidase reaction mixtures by semipreparative high pressure liquid chromatography. Chemical structures were determined by a combination of electron impact and chemical ionization mass spectrometry and 500-MHz proton magnetic resonance spe...

A facile approach to functionalize carbon nanofibers [CNFs] with nanostructured polyaniline was developed via in situ mechanochemical polymerization of polyaniline in the presence of chemically treated CNFs. The nanostructured polyaniline grafting on the CNF was mainly in a form of branched nanofibers as well as rough nanolayers. The good dispersibility and processability of the hybrid nanocomp...

The objective of this study is to evaluate the emulsifier role in the synthesis of Iron Polyaniline nanocomposite by in-situ oxidative polymerization of aniline and reduction of Iron ions into Fe nanoparticles. The polymerization of aniline was carried out in the presence of FeCl as oxidizing agent. During the reaction 3 aniline monomers undergo oxidation and form polyaniline (PANI) whereas the...

A series of polyaniline (PANI) salts were synthesized with the presence of a small amount of water varying from 0 to 1 mL at the beginning of solid-state polymerization. The structure and morphology of the samples were characterized by fourier transform infrared (FTIR) spectra, ultraviolet-visible (UV-Vis) absorption spectra, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM). T...
