Abstract

This communication reports the synthesis and characterisation of two novel Intrinsic conducting polymer nano composites (ICPN s) with the formulae Ga (2x+2) N Fe 2(49-x) O3—PPY synthesized using Impregnation technique. The Gallium nitride ferrite nano particles were synthesized for x = 1 and x = 5 using the above stichiometric equation earlier by Sol—Gel route. The chemical composition in the assembly of the ICPNs were Ga4NFe96O3-3%,10%,30% Polypyrrole, Ga12NFe88O3-3%,10%,30% Polypyrrole by weight. The Sci-Finder software failed to trace any earlier articles or reviews related to these ICNPs synthesised by us in the literature. X-ray Diffractometric (Structural), Morphological, EDAX SAED, IR spectroscopic characterizations were done on the synthesized nanocomposites. Structural studies reveal the semi-crystalline nature of composites. The average crystallite size of nano composites is decreased when compared with nano ferrites. SEM findings reveal that the shape for higher percentage of PPY is nano rods; for lower percentage it is globular. TEM reveals good dispersion and average particle size from histograms are calculated. The FT- IR bands of PPY and GaNFe2O3 are observed which show strong interaction between PPY- GaNFe2O3. Also there is a shift of bands in GaNFe2O3-PPY nano composites when compared to the bands of PPY.
