Abstract: | In situ polymerization of aniline is done
inside the pillared clay matrix. The nonswellable pillared
clay confined matrix allows efficient polymerization that
leads to nanofibrous morphology. As a result high polymer
order and crystallinity is attained and is evident from
XRD patterns. The strong interaction between the clay
layers and polyaniline (PANI) is understood from FTIR and DRS spectra. Additionally these analytical results suggest that the prepared PANI is in the doped state. The
PANI/pillared clay nanocomposite formation gives additional
thermal stability to the polymer backbone and is clear from the DTG curves. |
