Electrically conducting nanocomposites: preparation and properties of polyaniline (PAni)-coated bacterial cellulose nanofibers (BC)

Fabrication and characterization of chitosan–gelatin/nanohydroxyapatite–polyaniline composite with potential application in tissue engineering scaffolds

“…PANI exhibited the related absorption bands at 1556 cm −1 and 1470 cm −1 , assigned to the stretching vibration of quinoid and benzoid structures, respectively. [47] XRD patterns were recorded to determine the structural phases in composite scaffolds. The XRD patterns of individual components (CS, Gel, nHA, and PANI) as well as the patterns of the composite scaffolds (CS-Gel, CS-Gel/nHA, and CS-Gel/nHA-PANI) were shown in Figure 3.…”

Polypyrrole/nickel sulfide/bacterial cellulose nanofibrous composite membranes for flexible supercapacitor electrodes

“…For example, CdS, CdSe, and Fe 3 O 4 nanoparticles have been synthesized and stabilized on BC nanofibers using the in situ precipitation method Zhang et al 2011;Yang et al 2012). The in situ production of PPy (Müller et al 2011(Müller et al , 2013Wang et al 2013;Xu et al 2013) and PANI Marins et al 2011;Lee et al 2012;Müller et al 2012;Wang et al 2012a) nanoparticles on the BC surface has been widely reported. In our recent work , the core-sheath-structured PPy/BC nanocomposite membranes were prepared via in situ polymerization of pyrrole and could be directly used as flexible supercapacitor electrodes with a high massspecific capacitance of 459.5 F g -1 at 0.16 A g -1 current density.…”

Bacterial cellulose-polyaniline nano-biocomposite: A porous media hydrogel bioanode enhancing the performance of microbial fuel cell

“…The synthesis of polyaniline at BC was performed based on Muller et al method [24]. Different volumes of Aniline (100, 200, 300 and 400 mL) were added to 10 mL of 0.5 M HCl aqueous solution and then the mixture was stirred for 10 min.…”
