Synthesis and characterization of conductive nanoblends based on poly(aniline‐co‐3‐aminobenzoic acid) in the presence of poly(styrene‐alt‐maleic acid)

Abstract

In this article, we describe electrically conductive nanoblends containing poly(aniline-co-3-aminobenzoic acid) (PANABA), poly(styrene-alt-maleic acid) (PSMAC), and polystyrene. PANABA copolymers on a nanoscale were prepared under ultrasonic irradiation by the oxidative copolymerization of aniline and 3-aminobenzoic acid at different molar ratios. PSMAC was also prepared in our laboratory. The obtained conductive nanoblends formed films with good homogeneity and flexibility. The conductivity of the obtained nanoblends was measured with a four-probe method.The maximum electrical conductivity obtained was 0.60 S/cm. The characterization of the obtained copolymers and nanoblends was carried out by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, and X-ray diffraction. Scanning electron microscopic images were taken from the obtained nanoblends. V C 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 122: [97][98][99][100][101][102][103][104] 2011

Smart and Functional Conducting Polymers: Application to Electrorheological Fluids

“…Although PANI has its own advantages in terms of controllable conductivity, environmental stability, and simple synthesis, it also exhibits limitations, such as poor solubility in various organic solvents. To overcome these defects, various derivatives were introduced [ 68 ]. Poly(diphenylamine) (PDPA) as a derivative of PANI, possesses not only a relatively low conductivity, which helps avoid cause short-circuiting and can be directly applied in an ER fluid, but also produces improved solubility in organic solvents with better thermal stability [ 69 ].…”

“…The PANI has potential application in rechargeable batteries, switchable membranes, and corrosion inhibitors . However, like most conjugated polymers, PANI has some disadvantages such as insolubility in common solvents and poor processability . A number of methods have been attempted to overcome the disadvantages of PANI and to improve its property.…”

Innovative magnetic tri-layered nanocomposites based on polyxanthone triazole, polypyrrole and iron oxide: synthesis, characterization and investigation of the biological activities

“…In recent years, layered nanocomposites have signied a class of multifunctional materials that has received growing attention. [1][2][3][4][5][6][7] The specic construction of these composites produces a synergistic effect between the organic and inorganic fragments, producing compounds with different chemical or physical properties as compared to the individual components. Layered nanocomposites not only represent an innovative alternative to the search for new materials, but also allow for the development of pioneering industrial applications.…”
