Abstract
Composites based on aligned carbon nanotubes and polyaniline are prepared via the electrochemical polycondensation of aniline in a sulf uric acid solution. The structure of the composites and the character of interaction of polyaniline and the surface of carbon nanotubes are studied by scanning and transmission electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and IR and X-ra y photoelectron spectroscopy. It is shown that in the composites, electron density is transferred from the carbon nanotube to the polyaniline film. The occurrence of polyaniline on the surface of nanotubes increases the mean current in cyclic voltammograms of the composite material and leads to a marked increase in the calculated specific capacity of electrodes formed on its basis.
