In situ formation of molecular-scale ordered polyaniline films by zinc coordination

Abstract: Considerable research approaches have focused on improving the crystallinity of conducting polymers to enhance the electrical conductivity. However, it is difficult to control the arrangement of polymer chains without the use of expensive and complex methods because of the intrinsic morphology of polymers. Herein, we report a one-step in situ process to produce controlled molecular-scale ordered polyaniline (PANI) films by coordination crosslinking with Zn ions using solvent-vapor thermal annealing (SVTA).

“…The HR‐TEM images showed a long‐range ordered structure of NH‐TATDPP with a d spacing of 0.30 nm, which perfectly matches with the XRD analysis result. This also confirmed the π–π‐stacked structure of NH‐TATDPP (Figure b) …”

“…It is well known that structural disorder hinders efficient charge transport in conducting polymer films 8,9 , thus degrades device performance. To achieve long-range charge transport, one promising strategy is to align the linear conducting polymer chains into quasi-two-dimensional (q2D) crystalline films 10,11 . The q2D film, composed by highly ordered supramolecular assembly of molecules/polymers with fully expanded-coil conformation via interchain interactions 1214 , can provide multiple pathways for interchain charge transport 8,9 and bypass possible defects of individual polymer chains 15 .…”

“…The P­(NB- g -St)- b -P­(NB- g -HSt) thin films without additives were prepared by solvothermal annealing (SVTA) and post-thermal treatment for 10 min at 180 °C as shown in Scheme c. SVTA is an effective method for self-assembly of low flexible polymers, such as metal–organic framework, and polymers with large χ. , Briefly, films of pure AmBBCP were coated on the silicon or glass substrates by drop-casting the solution of the AmBBCP in dioxane, and then, solvent vapor annealing with heating was simultaneously performed in a chamber saturated with dioxane, a nonselective solvent. ,, This induces self-assembly of the AmBBCP having a large χ parameter. When the AmBBCPs were annealed in solvent vapor, amorphous structures for SP1-0R to 5-0R were seen in the field-emission scanning electron microscopy (FE-SEM) of cross-sectional images (Figure a).…”
