Abstract

Conducting polyaniline with electrical conductivity of 2.34 × 10 −1 S cm −1 was obtained using ferrocenesulfonic acid as dopant. After the ferrocenesulfonic acid was oxidized with FeCl 3, though the electrical conductivity of the doped polyaniline decreased by 1–2 orders of magnitude, the magnetic susceptibility ( χ) increased with the increase of the oxidation degree of ferrocenesulfonic acid. EPR spectra showed not only a signal with a g value of around 2, but also a so-called half-field signal with a g value of about 4 even at room temperature. Coexistence of ferromagnetic intrachain interactions and antiferromagnetic interchain interactions in the materials has been suggested.
