Abstract

Keys include undertaking polymer synthesis and physical property research. Conductive is polyaniline.  The presence of pristine nano CdS particles in the matrix was demonstrated by X-ray diffraction (XRD).
 In this study, four sol-gel techniques are used to prepare nanostructured polyaniline (PANI). PANI molecular structure was characterized using X-ray diffraction to assess the morphology of PANI samples.
 The results of the prepared PANI's characterization reveal that the unconventional synthesis methods utilized to create it drastically changed its morphology, chemical composition, crystallinity, conductivity, and surface area. The outcomes of the characterization supported this. The manufacturing and properties of polyaniline conducting polymers are examined in this research. The classic and grafted techniques of polyaniline synthesis have been examined. The relationship between structure and properties is established by this high-accuracy development procedure. In the future, polyaniline with altered structure may be employed.
 PANI/CdS nanocomposites have higher DC conductivity than PANI, according to observations.
 In situ production of conducting polyaniline nanocomposites with CdS nanoparticles was achieved by oxidizing aniline with cadmium sulphate at 3.5 pH. Electrical conductivity of polyaniline is influenced by CdS-nanoparticles. In contrast to pure polyaniline, the electrical conductivity of polyaniline nano-composite is increased by the homogenous intercalation of CdS nanoparticles, which results in a cooperative phenomenon between polyaniline and the nanoparticles.
