Abstract

Looking for improving the electric conductivity of polymers, films consisting of polyaniline with particles and layers of silver and copper have been prepared by glow discharge plasma. The material obtained in this way had metallic particles dispersed within the polymer structure and thin metallic layers on the surface. The ionic and electronic rain in the plasma produces good inter-particle contacts between the metal and the polymer that increases the electric conductivity of the material. The polymer-metal composites were characterized by transmission electronic microscopy, energy-dispersive X-ray microanalysis, X-ray diffraction and thermal gravimetric analysis. The electric conductivity was measured between 20-60 C.
