Synthesis and electrorheological properties of polyaniline/silicon dioxide composites

Abstract: This study was to synthesize the inherently conductive polymer polyaniline using an optimized process to prepare polyaniline/silicon dioxide (PANI/SiO 2 ) composites by in situ polymerization and ex situ solution mixing. PANI and PANI/SiO 2 composite films were prepared by drop-by-drop and spin-coating methods. The morphology of particles and films were examined by a scanning electron microscope (SEM). SEM measurements indicated that the SiO 2 were well-dispersed and isolated in composite films. The electrorhe… Show more

“…Amongst the class of conducting polymers, Polyaniline (PAni) is unique due to its easy synthesis, low cost, good thermal stability, and reversible doping/dedoping process to control the conductivity [10,11] . When reaction occurs in acidic environment (low pH condition), leads the head-to-tail coupling of aniline monomers in the para position and green form as a protonated emeraldine, which can be dedoped by oxidizing agent to produce the blue, emeraldine base form of the semi-conducting polymer [12][13][14] .…”
