The effect of the oxidation conditions on the chemical polymerization of polyaniline

Alternative oxidizers in polyaniline synthesis

“…There are some oxidants more often reported in the bibliography than the others. This group constitute peroxydisulfate (VI) sodium or ammonium (MacDiarmid method) [20,21], ammonium peroxydisulfate/ammonium cerium (IV) nitrate mixture [22], chromate (VI) potassium [23] and hydrogen peroxide [16].…”

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

“…It is well reported in literature that the electrical conductivity of PANI depends mainly on the dopant concentration, oxidant-to-monomer ratio, the rate of addition of oxidants, the nature of dopants, purity of monomer and polymerization time, etc. [18][19][20]. Crosslinked hydrogels based on gum ghatti were studied to determine their absorbency and biodegradability [21,22].…”

Kinetics of 2-Pentadecylaniline Polymerizations in Monolayers: Relationships between Experimental Data and a New Theoretical Model

“…Since eqs. (18) and (19) indicate that these average molecular weights are directly proportional to ýk-plki, and the activation energy for propagation is smaller than for initiation, the average molecular weight must decrease when the temperature is increased. This idea agrees with results obtained by another group 4 …”
