Abstract

AbstractPolyanilines soluble in an aqueous basic medium were synthesised by copolymerization of aniline (ANI) with both 2 and 3‐aminobenzoic acids (ABA). Different composition copolymers were prepared by varying the ANI/ABA feed ratio. Poly(aniline‐co‐2‐aminobenzoic acid) (PANI2ABA) and poly(aniline‐co‐3‐aminobenzoic acid) (PANI3ABA) displayed differences in their properties, such as specific charge and fluorescence behavior because the reactivity of 2‐aminobenzoic (2ABA) and 3‐aminobenzoic (3ABA) acids are very different. The new materials were characterized by X‐ray photoelectron, Fourier transform infrared, and Raman spectroscopies. © 2004 Wiley Periodicals, Inc. J Polym Sci Part A: Polym Chem 42: 5587–5599, 2004
