Synthesis and characterization of conducting polymers and their composites

Synthesis and characterization of conducting polymers and their composites

Blends of conducting polymers polypyrrole and polyaniline, in the insulating host polymers, poly-bisphenol A carbonate, polyamide and polyamide have been prepared electrochemically. Composite homogeneity and a possible chemical interaction between the host matrices and the conducting polymers were searched. Several spectroscopic and thermal analyses of free standing films suggest such an interaction.
