Polyaniline/Montmorillonite Nanocomposites Obtained by In Situ Intercalation and Oxidative Polymerization in Cationic Modified-Clay (Sodium, Copper and Iron)

New poly(o-phenylenediamine)/modified-clay nanocomposites: A study on spectral, thermal, morphological and electrochemical characteristics

“…Intercalated and/or exfoliated nanocomposites can be prepared by intercalation polymerization depending on the monomer/clay ratio. In the past, PANI/Clay nanocomposites were synthesized by emulsion intercalation [17][18][19], electrochemical [20,21], inverse emulsion polymerization [22], in situ intercalation [23][24][25][26][27], and mechanochemical intercalation method [28,29]. A higher intercalation level of PANI inside the clay gallery was achieved when the clay was chemically modified by various organic molecules before the polymerization [30,31].…”

Characterization and electrochemical properties of conducting nanocomposites synthesized from p-anisidine and aniline with titanium carbide by chemical oxidative method

“…21 Organic-inorganic hybrid materials, which combine excellent 22 performances of the two materials, are extremely innovative, and 23 such materials promise new applications in many fields, such as 24 electronics, optics, electrochemistry, supercapacitor, mechanics 25 and biology [7][8][9][10]. Any organic-inorganic hybrid materials can be 26 obtained by intercalative reactions of layered solids based on 27 self-assembly approaches [11][12][13][14]. 28 Recently, on the basis of conducting polymers and inorganic 29 nanoparticles, the nanocomposites have attracted attention as it 30 seems to be the potential route to improve the performance of 31 materials in devices.…”

Competitive sorption of Cd2+ and Pb2+ from a binary aqueous solution by poly (methyl methacrylate)-grafted montmorillonite clay nanocomposite

“…1b. An increase in the basal spacing was observed after modification with PMMA. This suggested that PMMA was partially intercalated and polymerized within the interlayer space of the NaMMT, possibly because of the large molecular size of PMMA (Zehhaf et al 2013;Qin et al 2015;Tran et al 2015).…”
