Title: Preparation and characterization of nanostructured polyaniline and polyaniline/Au nanocomposites
Abstract: With chloroaurate acid(HAuCl4)acted as the oxidant,different morphological polyaniline and polyaniline/Au nanocomposite materials doped with two different kinds of inorganic acid(HCl and H2SO4)were successfully fabricated by one-step oxidation polymerization of aniline viaadjusting the volume percent of ethanol/water of mixed solvent.The morphological evolution of the so-obtained products was observed viascanning electron microscopy(SEM). The chemical and electronic structures of the as-prepared materials were studied using Fourier transform infrared(FT-IR)and UV-Vis spectroscopies.Based on the characterizations,the possible formation mechanism of polyaniline/Au nanocomposite was also discussed.
