“…A number of researchers have studied the preparation and properties of conducting polymer/insulating polymer composites because of their unique properties and potential applications. Good homogeneity and high miscibility of conducting polymers in insulating polymers as matrix makes the related conducting composites more stable and more attended when compared with the conductive composites made by the addition of non‐homogenous metal and carbon powders . The conductivity of the conducting polymers and consequently, the conductivity of the conducting polymer/insulating polymer composite systems can be varied by controlling the synthesis method, dopant nature, or by using structural directors .…”

This study concentrates on the effect of organophilic montmorillonite (OMMT) nanolayers on conductivity, structure, morphology, and mechanical properties of the polypropylene/polyaniline (PP/PANI) composites. The composite was prepared by in situ polymerization of aniline at different composition ratios in the presence of PP powder. The structure and conductivity of ternary PP/PANI/OMMT nanocomposites were compared with those of PP/PANI composites. DC electrical conductivity measurements indicated that electrical conductivity decreased in the presence of OMMT layers. Scanning electron microscopy showed that the surface of ternary nanocomposites have more rough regions. The interaction between PANI and OMMT was confirmed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy. The distribution of OMMT layers in the polymer matrix, as an effective parameter on the properties of nanocomposite, was investigated and confirmed using X‐ray diffraction and transmission electron microscopy. The results showed an exfoliated array for OMMT layers in the nanocomposite structure. The shear storage modulus for PP/PANI composites was lower than that for pure PP; however, it was increased for PP/PANI/OMMT nanocomposites. The data from the tensile and izod impact strength showed that the Young's modulus and izod impact strength were increased slightly by the addition of OMMT, whereas the elongation at break was decreased.

Poly(4‐aminodiphenylamine)‐silver nanocomposites were synthesized by an easy one‐step aqueous chemical oxidative polymerization of 4‐aminodiphenylamine (4ADPA) using silver nitrate (AgNO3) as the oxidant. Two different structure directing surfactants, p‐toluene sulfonic acid (p‐TSA) and cetyl trimethyl ammonium bromide/hydrochloric acid (CTAB/HCl), were independently used for the nanocomposite (NC) preparation. The NCs prepared in p‐TSA and CTAB/HCl medium were designated as P4ADPA/AgNC(p−TSA) and P4ADPA/AgNC(CTAB/HCl), respectively. We investigated the morphological variations in the NCs based on the medium. P4ADPA/AgNC(p−TSA) and P4ADPA/AgNC(CTAB/HCl) were characterized by field emission scanning electron microscopy, X‐ray diffraction analysis, Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, thermogravimetric analysis and UV‐visible spectroscopy.
