Abstract

Polyaniline (PANI) and shell membrane composites have been synthesized via chemical oxidative polymerization of aniline in the presence of shell membrane. Combination of surfactant, PANI, and shell membrane allows production of conductive textile with smooth surface. Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR) measurements suggest that the oxidation degree of PANI was affected by the initial ratio of shell membrane vs. monomer amount. The PANI/shell membrane composites were characterized with UV-vis absorption spectroscopy, electron spin resonance (ESR) spectroscopy. Electrical conductivity of the composites was measured with four-probe method. The surface of the composites was observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Thermal stability of the composites was discussed with the result of thermogravimetric analysis.
