Abstract
Chemical copolymerization of aniline with o-anthranilic acid in aqueous 1 M HCl was carried out at different molar ratios of aniline and o-anthranilic acid, and was characterized by FTIR and UVVisible spectroscopy, elemental analysis and electrical conductivity. From FTIR and UV-Visible spectroscopy, we observed that o-anthranilic acid had been introduced into the polymer chain successfully. The percent yield of o-anthanilic acid copolymer with aniline decreases as the percent of aniline increases. An increase in the % C can be observed as the amount of o-anthranilc acid in the copolymer decrease or the amounts of aniline increase. Copolymerization of aniline with o-anthranilic acid would improve the resulting polymer via increasing the molecular weight and the conductivity as well.
Highlights
Anilines which are soluble in aqueous solutions are attractive because they can be processed in water, avoiding the environmental concerns associated with the use of organic solvents
On copolymerization of aniline with o-anthranilic acid there is a formation of material having properties intermediate to their homopolymer and more process able copolymers
Poly(o-anthranilic acid) and copolymers of aniline were synthesized according to the following reactions: COOH
