Abstract:
Phenylenediamine-oxalic acid nanofibers were chemically
synthesized by chemical oxidative polymerization in the
presence of ammonium persulfate as oxidant. In this paper we
report a simple method to develop Phenylenediamine (PDA)
doped with oxalic acid (OA) having nanofibers morphology.
The morphology of synthesized Phenylenediamine doped with
oxalic acid nanofibers were analyzed by SEM, UV-Vis. As the
concentration of oxalic acid increases conductivity goes on
increasing.
Keywords:
nanofibers, conducting polymer, organic acid dopant,
Phenylenediamine, spectroscopy.
