Abstract
A comparative systematic study addresses the specific features of polymerization of aniline adsorbed on the Nylon matrices in the solutions containing monomer and in the monomer-free solutions. The characteristics of the formed composite materials are investigated. In the presence of aniline in the solution, a uniform and conducting composite material is obtained and its electrical conductivity reversibly depends on pH of the medium and is several orders of magnitude higher than the electrical conductivity of the composite material prepared by the polymerization of aniline in the Nylon matrix in the monomer-free solution.
