Synthesis of dendritic polyaniline nanofibers by using soft template of sodium alginate

Abstract: Highly crystallized polyaniline (PANI) nanofibers were synthesized by oxidative polymerization of aniline in the presence of sodium alginate as a soft template in HCl and ammonium peroxydisulfate (APS) acting as an oxidizing agent. Sodium alginate, in presence of a protonic acid like HCl, formed hydrogen bonds with anilium ions or oligomers. The formed hydrogen bonds provide the driving force to form PANI nanofibers. The nanofibers were separated from the alginate gel by degelling with ammonium hydroxide and d… Show more

“…In this manuscript we detail the facile in situ synthesis of nanocomposites containing PANI nanofibers decorated with silver nanoparticles. This approach extends our previous work, where we illustrated that the PANI nanofibers could be formed using soft template of sodium alginate 33. The presence of water‐soluble metal salt in the parent solution does not alter the nanofibrillar morphology and favors the synthesis of metal nanoparticles that garnish the PANI nanofibers.…”
