“…Since the pioneering work of Gregory et al [1] different works have been published concerning the production of polypyrrole (PPy) or polyaniline (Pani) coated fabrics to produce conductive fabrics [2][3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17]. The applications of polyaniline coated fabrics are for example as: ammonia sensor [2], electromagnetic shielding [3][4][5], static charge dissipation [4], electromechanical devices [6] or precious metals recovery [7].…”

“…This acid medium is needed for obtaining polyaniline in its conducting form. Different textile substrates have been coated with polyaniline, like: polyester [1,3,6,[10][11][12][13][14][15][16][17], nylon 6 [1,2,7,10,14], wool [10,14], acrylics [10,14], cotton [5,10,14], silica [3,4], glass [3] or quartz [1]. In the present study, we have employed polyester (PES) since this synthetic polymer is not damaged by the acid media employed to carry out the synthesis.…”

“…Since the pioneering work by Gregory et al [71], who described the in situ polymerization of pyrrole or aniline on the surface of textile composites, a number of research studies have discussed the production of PANI-coated fabrics and fibers, either by chemical or electrochemical deposition [72][73][74][75][76][77][78][79][80][81][82][83][84][85][86] on polyester (mostly PET) [71,[73][74][75]77,78,81,[84][85][86], nylon 6 [71,72,75,82,84], wool [75,84], acrylics [75,84] and cotton [75,80,84,87]. The majority of the PANI-coated fabrics and fibers were prepared via in situ oxidative polymerization of aniline under acidic conditions.…”

The development of efficient synthetic strategies for incorporating antibacterial coatings into textiles for pharma and medical applications is of great interest. This paper describes the preparation of functional nonwoven fabrics coated with polyaniline (PANI) via in situ polymerization of aniline in aqueous solution. The effect of three different monomer concentrations on the level of polyaniline coating on the fibers comprising the fabrics, and its electrical resistivities and antibacterial attributes, were studied. Experimental results indicated that weight gains of 0.7 and 3.0 mg/cm2 of PANI were achieved. These levels of coatings led to the reduction of both volume and surface resistivities by several orders of magnitude for PANI-coated polyester-viscose fabrics, i.e., from 108 to 105 (Ω/cm) and from 109 to 105 Ω/square, respectively. Fourier Transform Infrared (FTIR) Spectroscopy and Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) confirmed the incorporation of PANI coating with an average thickness of 0.4–1.5 µm, while Thermogravimetric Analysis (TGA) demonstrated the preservation of the thermal stability of the pristine fabrics. The unique molecular structure of PANI, consisting of quaternary ammonium ions under acidic conditions, yielded an antibacterial effect in the modified fabrics. The results revealed that all types of PANI-coated fabrics totally killed S. aureus bacteria, while PANI-coated viscose fabrics also demonstrated 100% elimination of S. epidermidis bacteria. In addition, PANI-coated, PET-viscose and PET fabrics showed 2.5 log and 5.5 log reductions against S. epidermidis, respectively.

In situ adsorption of monomers on fibers plays a key role in fabricating highly conductive polyaniline (PANI)-based textiles by two-stage oxidation polymerization. Experiments were conducted in aniline monomer and hydrochloric acid solution with the variables such as contact time, initial concentration, and temperature, which can enhance the equilibrium adsorption capacity to aniline of poly(ethylene terephthalate) (PET) fibers. Equilibrium data were fit well by a Henry partition-type isotherm equation. It was found that the kinetics of the adsorption of aniline onto PET fibers at different operating conditions was best described by the pseudo-second-order model. The rate parameters of the intraparticle diffusion model for adsorption were also evaluated and compared to identify the adsorption mechanisms. The monomer exhaustion increased with increasing the temperature. The value of electrical surface resistance of conductive textiles about 3.2 kX was obtained when the padder squeeze step was introduced, and the molar ratio of 0.6 between the oxidant concentration and the exhausted concentration of monomers at the adsorption equilibrium was applied. Scanning electron micrographs of PANI/PET composite surfaces were observed, conforming that smooth films were produced by surface polymerization of aniline monomers adsorbed previously on fibers.
