Summary
In this study, polyindole/poly(vinyl acetate) (PIN/PVAc) conducting composite film was prepared through chemical polymerization using oxidant FeCl3. As‐synthesized sample was characterized by Fourier transform infrared (FTIR), X‐ray diffraction (XRD) and DC conductivity measurements. FTIR spectra were supported polymerization of polyindole in presence of poly(vinyl acetate). The polymer chain separation was determined using XRD analysis. An attempt has been made to study temperature dependence of DC conductivity of PIN/PVAc conducting composite film in temperature range 308–393 K. The DC conductivity initially increases and reaches to 3.91 × 10−7 S/cm.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
