Abstract The development of a nonprecious, stable, and highly effective electrocatalyst for decomposition water into oxygen hydrogen is vitally important sustainable energy conversion, but it still remains challenging to replace the noble metal electrocatalysts with more economically viable alternatives. Herein, polyaniline (PANI) decorated hierarchical nickel cobalt thiospinel (NiCo 2 S 4 ) hy...

Highly dense arrays of ordered and aligned nanorods of polyaniline with 10 nm diameter on transparent ITO substrate have been successfully fabricated using supramolecular assemblies of block copolymer as scaffold material; the ordered arrays of polyaniline nanorods so fabricated were found to exhibit excellent electrochemical properties with an electrochemical capacitance value of 3407 F g(-1).

the direct synthesis of polyaniline-tio2 nanocomposite coatings on aluminum alloy 3004 (aa3004) surface has been investigated by using the galvanostatic method. the synthesized coatings were characterized by ft-ir, sem-edx, sem and afm. optical absorption spectroscopy reveals the formation of the emeraldine oxidation state form of polyaniline-tio2 nanocomposite. the corrosion performances of po...

This study aims at exploring an effective route in the in situ graft polymerization of aniline from Fe3O4 nanoparticles. To this goal, Fe3O4 magnetic nanoparticles were prepared by coprecipitation method using ammonia solution as the precipitating agent, and were characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FT-IR) spectroscopy, X-ray diffraction (XRD) and transmission electron microscopy (TEM)....

The aniline dimer, N-(4-aminophenyl)aniline has been polymerized cleanly under mild conditions to obtain an emeraldine base form of polyaniline using [MeB(3-(Mes)Pz)3]CuCl as the catalyst and H2O2 as the oxidant, while the subsequent acidification of the emeraldine base gives the conducting emeraldine salt form of polyaniline.

A new mechanism for the formation of doped polyaniline is presented. Besides providing suitable structural and spectroscopic parameters, the new mechanism allows for the rationalization of the experimentally observed equilibrium between polaron and bipolaron defects in emeraldine salt. The magnetic behavior and the "metallic island" model for conduction in doped polyaniline are also theoretical...

Polyaniline nanocomposite using metal oxides have wide variety of applicability because its enhanced properties to that pure polyaniline. Here we employed titanium dioxide as the oxide synthesize polyaniline composite (PANi-TiO2 ) through chemical oxidative polymerization in-situ. The obtained PANi-TiO2 is tested for powder X-Ray diffractometry (XRD), & Scanning electron microscopy(SEM).

Hierarchical materials have been considered promising for secondary battery electrodes owing to their capability of accommodating volumetric change active and providing short pathways rapid transportation ions electrons. Herein, we present a rod-on-tube composite consisting cobalt molybdate (CoMoO4) nanotubes coating with polyaniline (PANI) hydrogel nanorods, which exhibits high electrochemical...
