Polyaniline Nanofibers Prepared by Dilute Polymerization

Nan-Rong Chiou, A. J. Epstein

Open publisher page 562 citations

Abstract

Polyaniline nanofibers (see Figure and cover) have been synthesized using dilute polymerization with reduced concentrations of both monomer and oxidant and a constant molar ratio. The diameters of the polyaniline nanofibers are tunable by appropriate selection of dopant acids. A dispersion of polyaniline nanofibers could be cast to form highly porous nanofibrous films without deformation of the nanofiber morphology.
