Some Physical Properties of Polyaniline Blends Films

Abstract

A polyaniline (Pani) blends films have been prepared successfully by the casting method. The Pani blends films of thickness 50 µm have been prepared from the Pani and PMMA, PS and POE at constant concentration. The Pani blends films are characterized by X-ray diffraction and Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy, the presence of characteristic bonds of Pani blends films were observed from FTIR spectroscopy technique. Electrical properties revealed that conductivity of Pani blends films at room temperature are 5.18 ×10^-9, 9.23×10^-9 and 1.22 ×10^-8 S.cm^-1 for  Pani blends with PMMA , PS and PEO,  respectively.  Mechanical properties show variation values of tensile stress and hardness for different Pani blends films.
