Morphology and characterization of conductive films based on polyaniline‐coated polystyrene latexes

The polyaniline (PANI)‐coated polystyrene (PS) latexes were synthesized, and the electrically conductive films were prepared thereafter. The weight ratio of PANI was 5%. Thermal analysis of the latices was performed using DSC and TGA. In this study, the electrically conductive films were prepared above the PS glass transition temperature (T_g). During the film formation, the effects of the annealing temperature and atmosphere (air or N₂) on the film resistance were investigated. In addition, the film morphology was observed utilizing scanning electron microscopy. The film resistance decreased in the initial heating stage due to the increasing temperature and the compaction of film. Then the film resistance increased with further annealing due to the aging of PANI. Typically, the film resistance was about 6000 Ω/sq, and the conductivity was 0.3 S/cm. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 102: 5406–5413, 2006

Effect of fabrication temperature on strain‐sensing capacity of polypyrrole‐coated conductive fabrics

Textile strain sensors were made from polypyrrole‐coated stretchable fabrics by a method of screen printing with chemical vapor deposition. The effect of polymerization temperature on the sensing performances was studied. It was found that polymerization at low temperature significantly improved the electrical conductivity, strain sensitivity and environmental stability of the fabric sensors. The conductive fabrics were characterized using X‐ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, contact angle measurements, particle size analysis, scanning electron microscopy and scanning probe microscopy. Powders of pure polypyrrole prepared by the same fabrication method were characterized for a better understanding of the polypyrrole coating. Copyright © 2007 Society of Chemical Industry     

Conductive IPN based on polyaniline and silicon‐crosslinked styrene‐isoprene‐styrene triblock copolymer

A series of new conducting interpenetrating polymer networks (IPNs) are prepared by sequential crosslinking reactions of tetraethyl orthosilicate with silicon‐grafted functional styrene‐isoprene‐styrene triblock copolymer (SIS) and polyaniline (PANI) doped with dodecylbenzenesulfonic acid (DBSA). The various factors affecting the properties of conductive IPNs are investigated. The conductivity is found to increase only slightly after the IPN films are treated at 140 ° C . The thermal stability of the IPNs is much better than that of the pure polymer under nitrogen atmosphere, as shown by the results from thermal gravimetry analysis (TGA). © 1999 Society of Chemical Industry     

Synthesis and characterization of polyacrylamide–polyaniline conductive blends

The mode of conduction has also been studied. The conductivity of the resulting composites reached up to 10⁻⁵ s/cm². © 1998 John Wiley & Sons, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 69: 841–844, 1998     

Polydopamine‐Assisted Electrochemical Fabrication of Polypyrrole Nanofibers on Bone Implants to Improve Bioactivity

Dopamine is a molecule that facilitates biomineralization, and it is used to prepare electropolymerization‐induced polydopamine (PDA). For the first time, dopamine is used for template‐free electrochemical polymerization to form biocompatible polypyrrole (PPy) nanofiber coatings on bone implants. Dopamine monomers are electropolymerized to PDA chains affixed to biomedical titanium after the nanomicelles are tuned to self‐assemble by triggering the potential, resulting in nanofiber formation. Dopamine serves as a dopant to induce the formation of conductive PPy nanofibers and as a promoter to accelerate biomineralization, cell proliferation, and adhesion.

Preparation of conductive polyaniline/nanosilica particle composites through ultrasonic irradiation

Polyaniline/nano‐SiO₂ particle composites were prepared through ultrasonic irradiation. Polymerization of aniline was conducted under ultrasonic irradiation in the presence of two types of nano‐SiO₂: porous nanosilica and spherical nanosilica. The stability of the colloid dispersion, UV–vis spectra, composition, interaction, conductivity, and other characteristics of the composites were examined. It was found that the aggregation of nano‐SiO₂ could be reduced under ultrasonic irradiation and that nanoparticles were redispersed in the aqueous solution. The formed polyaniline deposited on the surface of the nanoparticle, which led to a core–shell structure. Two particle morphologies, threadlike aggregates with a few spherical nanoparticles for porous nanosilica and spherical particles with a few sandwichlike particles for spherical nanosilica, were observed. X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy showed that for two types of composites the ratio of Si atoms to N atoms (Si:N) on the surface was much higher than that in the bulk. The UV–vis spectra of the diluted colloid dispersion of polyaniline/nano‐SiO₂ composite particles were similar to those of the polyaniline system. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy suggested strong interaction between polyaniline and nano‐SiO₂. The conductivity of the polyaniline/porous nanosilica (23.1 wt % polyaniline) and polyaniline/spherical nanosilica (20.6 wt % polyaniline) composites was 2.9 and 0.2 S/cm, respectively. © 2003 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Polypyrrole/MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA composite for flexible and highly conductive transparent film

This study compares the properties of a highly conductive polymer based on polypyrrole and multiwall carbon nanotubes (MWCNTs) grafted with poly (styrenesulfonic acid) (PPy/MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA) prepared for flexible indium tin oxide‐free organic solar cell (OSC) anode with those of PH500 poly(3,4‐ethylenedioxythiophene) : poly(styrenesulfonate) (PEDOT : PSS) in various solvents. Hydrophilic poly(styrenesulfonic acid) (PSSA) was grafted on the MWCNT surfaces to improve dispersion of the MWCNT in an aqueous solution. MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA was added because MWCNT acts as a conductive additive and a template for the polymerization of PPy. Polymerization yields increased as the amount of MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA increased and reached a maximum when 50% of MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA was added. The conductivity of PPy/MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA composite was further improved and the value reached ～ 152 S/cm with the addition of a toluenesulfonic acid (TSA)/HCl dopant mixture. To prepare a flexible OSC anode, PPy/MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA dissolved in solvent mixture, was coated onto a polyethylene terephthalate (PET) substrate. PPy/MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA was dissolved in a mixture of solvents including DMSO, NMP, EG, DEG, and glycerol of a high boiling point that was spin coated onto the PET, then annealed for 30 min at various temperatures. The conductivity of PPy/MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA was further enhanced with solvent treatment and annealing at temperature ranges of 100–175°C. Under optimum conditions, the conductivity and transmittance of PPy/MWCNT‐gr‐PSSA on PET reached 602 S/cm and 84% at 550 nm, respectively. In addition, it was confirmed that the energy level and mechanical strength of the film were suitable for OSC electrode use. © 2011 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci, 2011     

Preparation and properties of conductive polyaniline/poly‐ω‐aminoundecanoyle fibers

Historically, polyaniline (PANI) had been considered an intractable material, but it can be dissolved in some solvents. Therefore, it could be processed into films or fibers. A process of preparing a blend of conductive fibers of PANI/poly‐ω‐aminoundecanoyle (PA11) is described in this paper. PANI in the emeraldine base was blended with PA11 in concentrated sulfuric acid (c‐H₂SO₄) to form a spinning dope solution. This solution was used to spin conductive PANI / PA11 fibers by wet‐spinning technology. As‐spun fibers were obtained by spinning the dopes into coagulation bath water or diluted acid and drawn fibers were obtained by drawing the as‐spun fibers in warm drawing bath water. A scanning electron microscope was employed to study the effect of the acid concentration in the coagulation bath on the microstructure of as‐spun fibers. The results showed that the coagulating rate of as‐spun fibers was reduced and the size of pore shrank with an increase in the acid concentration in the coagulation bath. The weight fraction of PANI in the dope solution also had an influence on the microstructure of as‐spun fibers. The microstructure of as‐spun fibers had an influence on the drawing process and on the mechanical properties of the drawn fibers. Meanwhile, the electrically conductive property of the drawn fibers with different percentage of PANI was measured. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 85: 1458–1464, 2002     

Polyaniline‐coated PET conductive yarns: Study of electrical,mechanical, and electro‐mechanical properties

Intelligent and multifunctional yarns (textiles) have attracted interest because of their high potential in applications such as flexible displays, batteries, or sensors. The main objective of our research was to obtain the flexible and electrically conducting yarn based on the conductive polymer and polyethylene terephtalate (PET) yarns. Among the conductive polymers, polyaniline (PANI) is considered as a promising material and is well adapted for modifications of textile structure because of its excellent environmental, thermal, and chemical stability. Chemical PANI coating on PET yarns was performed by absorption of yarns through PANI solution. The electrical, mechanical, and electro‐mechanical properties of PET conductive yarns prepared were investigated. The environmental effects on the electrical and mechanical properties of the obtained conductive yarns were also studied. These conductive yarns are expected to be used as fibrous sensors, connection devices in smart clothing, and for electromagnetic shielding applications. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Effect of dopant mixture on the conductivity and thermal stability of polyaniline/nomex conductive fabric

Electrically conductive polyaniline (PANI)/[poly(m‐phenylene isophthalamide)] Nomex composite fabric was prepared by in situ polymerization of aniline doped by a mixture of hydrochloride (HCl) and various sulfonic acids such as benzenesulfonic acid (BSA), sulfosalicylic acid (SSA), and dodecylbenesulfonic acid (DBSA); their effect on conductivity and physical properties were then investigated. PANI/Nomex composite fabrics doped by a mixture of protonic acids exhibited higher conductivity than those doped by other single dopants such as camphorsulfonic acid (CSA), p‐toluenesulfonic acid (TSA), BSA, SSA, and HCl. The conductivity of PANI/Nomex fabrics especially doped by a mixture of HCl and DBSA was evenly maintained up to 100°C without depression of mechanical properties of Nomex. Their conductivity was also maintained under extension of the composite fabric. In addition, electrical conductivity of PANI/Nomex fabrics was highly increased by ultrasonic treatment, which facilitated better diffusion and adsorption of aniline by cavitation and vibration. © 2002 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Conducting blends obtained from maleic acid/dodecylhydrogensulfate‐doped polyaniline and polyvinyl chloride by solution processing

Solution processible polyaniline, obtained by our newly developed method via emulsion polymerization in the presence of maleic acid and sodium lauryl sulfate with benzoyl peroxide as the oxidizing/polymerizing agent, has been used for the fabrication of conductive blends with poly(vinyl chloride) (PVC), covering the conductivity range from 10^?5 to 5 × 10^?3 S/cm and showing the percolation threshold for the electrical conductivity f_p = 0.039. The fabricated blends combine good mechanical properties with enhanced electrical conductivity, since up to conducting phase content f = 0.231, their mechanical properties remain essentially the same and characteristic of pure PVC. Differential scanning calorimetry (DSC) measurements show a single glass‐transition temperature (T_g) increasing with growing content of the rigid conductive phase in the blend. This effect can be taken as an evidence of good miscibility of both components of the blend with phase separation at a submicrometric level. The latter has been confirmed by scanning electron microscopy studies showing a necklace‐like morphology which assures the continuity of the conductive phase. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Viscoelastic properties and structure of the zone‐drawn polyaniline films

The zone‐drawing method was applied to chemically synthesized polyaniline cast films of emeraldine base under various applied tensions and drawing temperatures. The changes in the microstructure and viscoelastic properties of the resulting films were investigated. It was found that the microstructure was strongly affected by the drawing temperature (T_d). The crystallinity, crystallite size, and orientation factor of crystallites, respectively, attained 42%, 23 Å, and 0.975 for the film zone‐drawn at T_d = 170°C, whereas a further increase in the T_d brought about a decrease of these values. The viscoelastic measurements indicated that the dynamic storage modulus attained 12 GPa at room temperature and was 5 GPa at 280°C for the film zone‐drawn at T_d = 210°C, which was comparable to that of the typical engineering plastics. © 2000 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Surface structure of conductive polypyrrole‐containing composites

The surface structures of polypyrrole/silicon crosslinked poly( styrene/butyl acrylate/hydroxyethyl acrylate) (PSBH) conductive composite films were investigated by X‐ray photoelectron spectroscopy and scanning electron microscopy. It was found that the conductive composite films were of a “sandwich” structure, and the surfaces greatly differ in chemical compositions and phase morphologies from the bulk. The Si and N contents exhibit opposite gradient change with the measured depth of the two surface layers in the composite films, namely, the decrease in Si content and the increase in N content with increase in the depth of the surface layers. However, the N^δ+/N ratios in polypyrrole decreased with the measured depth of the conductive composite film. It was also found that the conductive composite film based on silicon crosslinked matrix exhibits more environmental stable than that based on linear matrix. © 1999 John Wiley & Sons, Inc.

Synthesis of polyaniline/MCM‐41 composite through surface polymerization of aniline

Polyaniline (PANI)/porous silica MCM‐41 (MCM‐41) composite was synthesized according to surface polymerization theory, and it was confirmed through comparing with PANI/solid silica (SiO₂) by TGA and XPS techniques. The morphology and composition of the composite were also characterized by some techniques such as small‐angle XRD, N₂‐adsorption isotherm, SEM, FTIR, and UV–vis. The thermal stability for the PANI/MCM‐41 composite was enhanced when compared with that of pure PANI. With the increase in the concentration of HCl, the doping degree increased and UV‐absorption peak at about 700 nm showed a red shift. The conductivity of the composite was enhanced by increasing the concentration of HCl. The results of FTIR showed that there was a strong interaction between PANI and MCM‐41. © 2006 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Appl Polym Sci 101: 2088–2094, 2006
