Studies on biphenyl disulphonic acid doped polyanilines: Synthesis, characterization and electrochemistry

Abstract: In this article, we report on the results obtained for the efforts we made to bring processability to the conducting polyaniline and substituted polyanilines by designing and synthesizing a new disulphonic acid with a biphenyl moiety as spacer group, viz. 4,4-biphenyldisulphonic acid (BPSA). When doped, the disulphonic acid acts as a spacer group between the polyaniline chains and facilitates increase in solubility and conductivity. The spacing effect is maximized when BPSA is used as doping agent in in situ p… Show more

“…This peak was not displayed in acidic medium, and therefore pointed out a difference in the path for structural changes in the PANI at pH 5.7 than that in acidic medium. Importantly, the peak at 550 nm has been previously ascribed to the presence of quinoid structures in the PANI film (such as EB, PNB, and PNS), , and additionally, this band is known to change with dopant concentration and nature, being linked to polaron- π* transitions in doped PANI . So that, this peak can be associated with the presence of either PNS and/or PNB.…”

“…Importantly, the peak at 550 nm has been previously ascribed to the presence of quinoid structures in the PANI film (such as EB, PNB, and PNS), 36,37 and additionally, this band is known to change with dopant concentration and nature, being linked to polaron-π* transitions in doped PANI. 38 So that, this peak can be associated with the presence of either PNS and/or PNB. Finally, all the described trends in both media were found to be rather the same for conditioned PANI films compared to nonconditioned ones (SI Figure S5c and d).…”

“…For instance, aniline molecules substituted by alkoxy, alkyl, acyl halide, alkyl sulfonate and benzyl sulfonate groups have been reported. These side chains can be either ring substituted or N ‐substituted . The N ‐substituted PANIs have obtained better processability; however, their conductivity has been greatly reduced .…”
