Effect of protonation media on chemically and electrochemically synthesized polyaniline

Gum ghatti based novel electrically conductive biomaterials: A study of conductivity and surface morphology

“…It was found that HClO 4 doped IPN showed a maximum current, which pointed to the maximum conductivity (Table 2). Various authors reported the synthesis of PANI by using different dopants and its characterization [49,50]. Kulkarni et al [51] synthesized PANI by chemical polymerization using different inorganic acids, such as HCl, H 2 SO 4 , HClO 4 , and HNO 3 , as protonic acid media.…”

Study of Synthesis and Temperature Dependence of DC Conductivity in the Low Temperature Range for Poly(N-Methylaniline)

“…[1][2][3][4][5][6][7] At present, polyanilines (PANI) doped with various protonic acids are the most promising intrinsic conducting polymers, due to their relatively high environmental and thermal stability and of course their simple and economical synthesis routes. 8,9 The great potential of PANI is, however, shrouded by some of its disadvantages, such as insolubility, infusibility, and hence nonprocessability. Like other intrinsic conducting polymers, PANI is regarded as intractable due to its rigid p-conjugated backbone structure.…”

Synthesis and humidity sensing properties of conducting poly(N-methyl aniline) doped with different acids

“…The preparation method of polyaniline involves two main techniques (chemical and electrochemical polymerization) using suitable protonation media. A number of papers are available reporting the synthesis of polyaniline by using different dopants and its characterization [7,8]. Incorporation of polar functional groups or long and flexible alkyl chains in the polymer backbone is a common technique to prepare Pani-type polymers, which are soluble in water and/or organic solvents.…”
